Abstract. Recent years were characterized by the rapid increase of mobile device usage in people's lives, contemporary mobile devices are equipped with many sensors and have high computational and processing capabilities. In a crowdsourcing architecture, mobile users participate constructively in specific information handling. Data collected by crowd and stored in a database may help offering new services such as operator's radio quality, user's claim and tracking. In this paper, we will focus on mobile location by clustering and interpolating to fit fingerprints to positions, our method will be trained in the offline phase and parameters will be updated periodically to track possible changes in propagation environment.
