Abstract

In this paper we present an agent based system for extracting live and historic position data on multiple persons in a real environment, using a commercial off the shelves Real Time Location System (RTLS).We present a context model for representing the location data which allows composition of location data with preexisting knowledge on the environment and activities taking place at the locations.We describe our experiences using the RTLS deployed in non-laboratory environment with hundreds of participants.
