Abstract :
We propose an RFID-based human probe positioning system for urban sensing. We call a person who has various sensors on his/her body human probe (HP). Our goals are (1) to estimate a position for HP which is based on location information of RFIDs and other HPs which hold position information with estimated error and (2) to manage and visualize sensor data considering a degree of position accuracy.
