Summary:A method, performed by at least one apparatus, is provided that includes obtaining, at a wireless access point, radio map data which enables a determination of characteristics of radio signals transmitted by the wireless access point. The characteristics of the radio signals are expected to be observable at different locations. Additionally, the method includes repeatedly providing, by the wireless access point, one or more identifiers of the wireless access point. The one or more identifiers include the radio map data or a part thereof to enable mobile devices receiving the one or more identifiers to determine their position based on the radio map data.
