Method, apparatus, and computer program product for employing a spatial association model in a real time location system

Abstract:

An example method includes determining that first locations of a first location tag and second locations of a second location tag indicate that the first location tag is moving at a different rate than the second location tag; and, in response to determining that the first and second locations indicate that the first location tag is moving at a different rate than the second location tag at a first time, determining a distance magnitude between the first location tag and the second location tag at the first time; comparing the distance magnitude to a reference distance; and determining, based on the comparing of the distance magnitude to the reference distance, whether the first and second locations indicate that a type of movement of an asset is rotational.
