Abstract
Facilitating navigation localization for a mobile robot operating autonomously can include a deployment of a retractable landmark in a work area in response to an operational threshold not being met for a mobile robot to autonomously operate traversing the work area. The operational threshold not being met can be based on a determination of when landmarks in the work area for the mobile robot to use as perimeter markers do not meet the operational threshold.
