Abstract
Embodiments described herein include techniques for localizing devices connected to wireless networks, such as wireless mesh networks. A device connected to a wireless mesh network may maintain and share information, such as location data and identifiers, regarding the device and other devices connected to the device. The device itself or a computing system to which the device connects may determine locations for the devices in the wireless mesh network and generate a device map that indicates the locations of the devices.
