Abstract
Methods, systems, and devices are described for calibrating a sensor of a distributed sensor system. More specifically, the described features generally relate to calibrating one sensor of such a system using information from one or more other sensors of the system. A calibration model may be determined based at least in part on a difference in geospatial location of the sensors. Further, in the case of one or both sensors being mobile, the difference in geospatial location of the sensors may vary over time such that different calibration models may apply to different portions of the sensed data. Also, the relative quality of the data sensed by the sensors may be taken into account for calibration (e.g., directionality of the calibration).
