Description

Based on the findings of previous research, the proposed effort aims to develop an open architecture that integrates multiple sources of location information with multiple device management and data protection mechanisms enables precision, real-time access to data. The integrated architecture will combine capabilities resident in the Mobile Device (and operating system), Mobile Device Management (MDM) / Enterprise Mobility Management (EMM), IoT Technologies, Data Ingestion and Normalization, Device Virtualization, and Mobile Deceive Detection and Localization technologies to provide an end-to-end system. The proposed architecture will leverage open standards and open source technologies where possible. In cases that proprietary technologies will be used, SOLUTE will develop abstraction layers and Open APIs to ensure that the resulting system is vendor neutral. In addition, the IMU based motion prediction algorithms developed in the previous phase will be improved and productionized. Finally, GML based Smart Maps will be implemented to add context and intelligence to all motion and location prediction inputs. All location sensing system will be thoroughly tested to build real world error and accuracy models. Much like other forms of sensor fusion, these models will be used to more accurately predict location information by aggregating and fusing information from all available sensor data.
