A locating engine (sometimes referred as a positioning engine) is the computational engine behind real-time locating systems (RTLS) and navigation support system. A locating engine combines algorithms of geometry or topography with algorithms of filtering to calculate a best estimate for objects or people, and to do so in real-time. The locating engine is the implementation of the algorithms for determining the equations of coordinates from inverting matrices of distances.
