Outline of Final Research Achievements

This research aims at promoting the utilization of positioning information and lowering costs on accurate positioning technologies and data by providing accurate positioning services through the Web. To achieve the research objectives, 1) In order to carry out and record the positioning data, a logging program was developed which can run under low-cost and low-spec devices such as Raspberry Pi. 2) To utilize the developed Web positioning services flexibly, WebAPI was developed for applying other systems and applications 3) The method to readily deploy positioning services with complex implemented steps was established using a container based virtualization software.
