Linguistic approximations of distances for indoor location authority

Positioning gadgets such as GPS devices often used for positioning references, navigation, and location updates in location aware applications, present outputs in coordinates and numerical forms, such as 20m from/to a point of interest or landmark. However, to human mind, the 20m is reprocessed into...
