Measurement data for wireless positioning
  1. Indoor WLAN measurement data in two four-floor buildings for indoor positioning studies. The data contains the collected RSS values, the Access Points ID (mapped to integer indices) and the coordinates; both the training data and several tracks for the estimation part are provided. The data can be used with any indoor localization algorithms, such as fingerprinting, path loss probabilistic approaches, Dempster Shaffer decision theory, etc. A Readme file is included. Research papers to use our measurements data could cite the following two papers, where also benchmark results based on this data are provided:
