Abstract
Techniques are disclosed for determining a location of a mobile device within an area of interest. One example computing system includes a processor configured to: obtain location information for areas of interest from a first device, the location information comprising signal strength readings associated with signal sources; receive a location request from a second device, the location request comprising signal strength readings associated with a current position of the second device; determine, using a machine learning model, the current position corresponds to a fingerprint within a location map, wherein the machine learning model is trained to: (i) generate the location map comprising fingerprints based on the location information; and (ii) determine a location based on a probability that a position matches a fingerprint in the location map; and determine that the current position corresponds to the fingerprint; and generate display information that includes the location of the fingerprint.
