A Radio Environment Model, also known as a Building Model, is an electronic representation of the placement of Wi-Fi access points and Bluetooth beacons within a building. This model is created when a user conducts surveys or reference tracks. Once completed, they are sent to Traxmate to be processed into a building radio environment model.
For each model, a median error is calculated based on the difference (the error) between the reference track generated by placing reference points during the survey and the calculated track based on the indoor positioning provided by the Combain Location API.
Traxmate automatically selects and publishes the best available building model based on a coverage rate and median error combination. However, manually publishing a selected model can override this automatic process. Additionally, the models can be edited manually by adding or editing beacons to improve the positioning effort further.
This image shows the published building radio environment model #1892 for Mattehuset1.
- There are a total of 98 available models.
- The current model includes 179 unique Wi-Fi MAC addresses and covers 4 out of 6 floors.
- The median error for all floors is 4.33 m.
