Abstract

Systems, apparatuses, and methods are described for determining the location of a worker in a plant, such as a petrochemical manufacturing or refining facility in order to render an augmented view of at least one asset in the vicinity of a fiducial marker. A field worker mobile device may scan the fiducial marker and render operating values for a measurable element of the assets in the field of view of the mobile device. Location of the mobile device with respect to the assets in the vicinity of the fiducial marker may be determined based upon the known location and orientation of the fiducial marker and/or the known location and orientations of the assets relative to the fiducial marker.
