Wireless Local Access Network (WLAN) technology provides mobility services to network users. In this paper a significant value was added to this technology, by proposing an inexpensive framework providing advanced location determination services. Our target environment is an indoor parking area. For this area a comprehensive architecture and infrastructure are experimented, which are composed of several WLAN Access Points able to capture radio signals emitted from user equipments, and a Location Server able to estimate the user position using an appropriate fingerprinting-based location algorithm. In such a way a typical WLAN infrastructure will not only provide data communication services to mobile users (e.g. for network service access), but will also provide accurate localization information which can be exploited by a wide variety of advanced location-based and value-added applications.
