Abstract
Methods and systems for providing an improved geolocation of a plurality of transmitters are disclosed. In one embodiment, a method for providing a geolocation of a plurality of transmitters includes determining a relative location of each transmitter in the plurality of transmitters with respect to at least one other transmitter in the plurality of transmitters; determining an initial geolocation of the plurality of transmitters; computing a calibration factor by comparing the initial geolocation of the plurality of transmitters to the relative locations of the plurality of transmitters; and determining a calibrated geolocation of the plurality transmitters by adjusting at least one final geolocation of the plurality of transmitters by the calibration factor.
