Systems and methods are provided for deterministically estimating whether the location of a computing device that is fixed or mobile is inside a fully enclosed building or not (e.g., fully or partially indoors/outdoors). Various environments are supported by the substance of the disclosure, including fully or partially indoor and outdoor environments.

Automatic determination of indoor or outdoor environmental conditions of a device

Examples described herein provide automatic location of access points by a computing device. Examples may include receiving, by the computing device from each AP in a subset of a plurality of APs, a Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) signal measurement, and based on each received GNSS signal measurement, constraining, by the computing device, the map of relative AP locations by at least one translational degree of freedom or one rotational degree of freedom. Examples may include resolving, by the computing device, locations of the plurality of APs in the map of relative AP locations.
