    Posted Jan 09, 2017 06:16 PM

    I'm currently working with the Meridian SDK on iOS and the precision of the device location is really poor, looks like the SDK ignore all beacons to provide location

     

    the location error is about 5 meters, got the following log entry:

    Fetched client location data for app ****************: 21 location beacons, 0 proximity beacons, 0 outdoor areas and 0 indoor levels on 0 maps.

    We have beacons and this device supports beacons; using MRBeaconLocationProvider

    2017-01-09 15:10:01.742541 Aruba[6921:4552398] [INFO]  MRLog.m:95 +[MRLog log:]

    MRBeaconLocationProvider: Low beacon signal.

     

    Any hint?

    Hi @julio.montoya

     

    Your log shows that it heard from 21 location beacons to do its calculation.  What do you think is being ignored by the SDK?

     

    Location accuracy of +/- 3 to 5 meters is within the expected range.  Is that what you mean by 5 meters?

    The precision of the device location is really inaccurate, even if the device is stood still the blue dot is dancing and moving by itself so my first guess is that de SDK ignores the beacons because that's the same accuracy that i get from gps device

    Probably best to file a support request to get to the bottom of this and check on the placement of your 21 beacons.
