Abstract

In aspects of location correlation in a region, a mobile device implements a location module that determines a current location of the mobile device in a region within communication range of a radio system based on location data received in radio signals from the radio system. The location module determines region coordinates at the current location of the mobile device in the region. The location module can then associate the region coordinates at the current location of the mobile device in the region with pixel grid coordinates determined from a digital image view as captured by a camera system in the region, and generate a location mapping of the region based on the current location and subsequent locations of the mobile device in the region. The location mapping correlates the locations of the mobile device in the region based on the pixel grid coordinates at the respective locations.
