If you are planning to handle more than 50 spatial anchors in a space larger than a tennis court, you will likely benefit from coarse relocalization spatial indexing.

The fast look-up of anchors enabled by coarse relocalization is designed to simplify the development of applications backed by world-scale collections of (say, millions of geo-distributed) anchors. The complexity of spatial indexing is all hidden away, allowing you to focus on your application logic. All the anchor heavy-lifting is done for you behind the scenes by Azure Spatial Anchors.

The downside of a beacon-based system is the initial deployment cost of beacons.

Carefully deploying bluetooth beacons is a good solution for large scale indoor coarse relocalization scenarios, where GPS is absent or inaccurate. It is also the only indoor method that is supported on all three platforms.

Beacons are typically versatile devices, where everything - including UUIDs and MAC addresses - can be configured. Azure Spatial Anchors expects beacons to be uniquely identified by their UUIDs. Failing to ensure this uniqueness will most likely cause incorrect results. For best results you should:

Azure Spatial Anchors will only track Bluetooth beacons that are in the known beacon proximity UUIDs list. Malicious beacons programmed to have allow-listed UUIDs can still negatively impact the quality of the service though. For that reason, you should use beacons only in curated spaces where you can control their deployment.

We'll start by creating and configuring a sensor fingerprint provider. The sensor fingerprint provider will take care of reading the platform-specific sensors on your device and converting their readings into a common representation consumed by the cloud spatial anchor session.
