When location was estimated using Sigfox’s Atlas Wi-Fi, the estimation error is several hundred meters. Meanwhile, when location was estimated using the Wi-Fi media access control (MAC) address and HERE’s API, the estimation error was ~10 m. In an Internet of Things device that obtains the Wi-Fi MAC address, the combination of exp32 and 100a was ~1/5th of the combination of Arduino R4 and Sigfox Shield.
