1. A device, comprising:

  • a processor; and

    a memory that stores executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, facilitate performance of operations, comprising;

    broadcasting emulated data resulting in broadcast emulated data, wherein the emulated data emulates access point data broadcast by an access point device such that the device appears to be the access point device, wherein the emulated data comprises a unique identifier associated with the device, wherein the emulated data is correlated to observing device location data, via a data storage device, and wherein the observing device location data is determined by an observing device in response to the observing device receiving the broadcast emulated data;

    receiving location data from the data storage device, wherein the location data is based on the observing device location data as correlated to the emulated data; and

    determining a device location of the device based on the location data.
