Abstract

A method of generating wireless signal information includes receiving relative movement data generated by sensors and wireless signal data generated by a wireless signal module at a computing system, the sensors and module for detecting wireless signals located in a portable electronic device (PED). The method further includes generating landmark information at a landmark detection module based on the relative movement data, the sensor data and the wireless signal data. The method further includes generating a plurality of Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) estimate locations based on the landmark information and the relative movement data at a SLAM optimization engine. The method further includes assembling a first database of locations and corresponding wireless signal strength and access points. The method further includes generating additional information concerning locations and wireless signal information based on the first database.
