- 22. awiloc® Testbeds
Berlin, Hamburg, Munich, Nuremberg
awilocTM testsbeds push the development of location
services in public areas (technology, services, applications)
The testbeds allow to test the operation under real
conditions with all related aspects including deployment,
accuracy, service concepts and user acceptance.
The testbeds are platforms for real-world applications and
are also used for evaluation and enhancement of all related
technologies and workflows.
Cooperation with online communities give application
partners user feedback.

- 25. awiloc® Testbeds
Common Goals
The testbeds offer an operative platform for the positioning in
buildings and inner cities. Enhancements to the city-wide
locating technology can be realized in a real-world scenario.
Definition and exchange of APIs and data formats between
partners speeds up development.
User acceptance and business cases can be evaluated in a
real-world scenario.
