+  * fingerprints need to be preset (define points on a map, scan and remember the results); after creating this base/dictionary of positions, it locates the user closest to the defined points;
+TEST
+  * cloned the project [[git@github.com:TeroM/indoor-position-tracker.git]], loaded to Eclipse
+  * run on Motorola, loads and works well!

   * WIGGLE: a contribution based map of wireless access points. https://wigle.net/
+===== conclusions ======
+need something closest to the TeroM tool + a general map of the space; map the space out (preset points and scan the db at each point); load all this information in the app (with an option to edit or re-measure db strengths);
