Abstract

A computer system stores calibration information corresponding to respective sets of sensor measurements associated with respective operating environments. After storing, in a first data structure, calibration information for a first operating environment, the system determines a current operating environment of the device. When the current operating environment of the device is consistent with the first operating environment and the calibration information for the first operating environment meets predefined measurement diversity criteria, the system calibrates at least one sensor for the first operating environment using the stored calibration information for the first operating environment. When the current operating environment of the device is inconsistent with the first operating environment, the system excludes the stored calibration information for the first operating environment when calibrating one or more sensors for the current operating environment.
