Abstract
In one example embodiment, an integration system obtains, based on data from a wireless location system, location data of a wireless device in a spatial area. The integration system determines location data of a person in the spatial area based on at least one image of the person captured by a camera. Based on the location data of the wireless device and the location data of the person, the integration system calculates a proximity parameter representing a spatial relationship between the wireless device and the person. Based on the proximity parameter, the integration system computes a probability of association between the wireless device and the person and determines, based on the probability of association, whether the person is a user of the wireless device.
