Summary:Examples describe systems and methods for iteratively determining a signal strength map for a wireless access point (AP) aligned to position coordinates. An example method includes receiving logs of data from devices. For a plurality of iterations, the method includes selecting a set of logs of data having an amount of GPS being less than a given amount of GPS in a previously selected set, determining estimates of signal strength maps for the wireless AP aligned to position coordinates based on the selected set and on given signal strength maps due to a previous iteration, and performing a simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) optimization of the possible locations of the wireless AP based on the given signal strength maps and the estimates of the signal strength maps. Based on the iterative optimizations, an output signal strength map is provided for the wireless AP aligned to position coordinates.
