Abstract

Examples for localization using tessellated grids are described. In an example, a plurality of physical entities can be identified in an indoor space and each physical entity can be georeferenced to a coordinate system. The indoor space can be divided into a grid of polygonal tiles abutting adjacent polygonal tiles, and arranged in a hierarchical structure with the tiles in one level of the hierarchical structure being substantially representable by polygonal tiles in other levels of the hierarchical structure. The grid is then spatially indexed by associating each physical entity with a polygonal tile from amongst the polygonal tiles in each hierarchical level, thereby correlating a georeference of the physical entity with the polygonal tile. Based on the spatial indexing, a grid map for the indoor space can be generated for localizing mobile devices in the indoor space.
