SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR BENCHMARKING LOCATION DETERMINING SYSTEMS
First Claim
1. A method of associating location data in a communications network, the method comprising:
- receiving a first set of data related to a location determined with a first technique;
calculating the same location using a second technique;
generating a second set of data representative of the calculated location using the second technique; and
associating at least a subset of the first set of data with the second set of data to generate data for the communications network.

Abstract
Systems, methods, and software are described for benchmarking the location determination capabilities of a wireless communications network. A mobile communications device is configured to receive data identifying a reference location for the device. A communications network, communicatively coupled with the mobile communications device, calculates a computed location for the device using an alternative location determination technique. The reference location and computed location may be determined for any number of additional devices, as well. The accuracy and reliability of a system may then be assessed by comparing one or more computed locations with associated reference locations. The latency attributable to the calculation of one or more computed locations may also be determined.
