Abstract
Systems and methods are provided for deterministically estimating whether the location of a computing device that is fixed or mobile is inside a building or not using location data. Particularly, the system may compare 3D geoposition uncertainty region of a location to a 3D volumetric structure shape of the location, and determining a confidence value based on the comparison associated with a likelihood that the location associated with the computing device is indoors or outdoors. Various states of the computing device are supported by the substance of the disclosure, including indoor and outdoor states.
