Abstract
A real time location system (RTLS) is provided for determining three-dimensional locations of nodes in an environment. The RTLS system includes at least one node associated with an asset in the environment. The at least one node has an unknown location. The system further includes at least one tracking device that communicates with the at least one node to obtain location data associated with the unknown location of the at least one node. A location module receives the location data associated with the unknown location of the at least one node and determines a real-time three-dimensional current location of the at least one node based on the location data. The real-time three-dimensional current location having x, y and z coordinates and the z coordinate indicates a height of the at least one node in the environment.
