Cool, so it looks like they take the “raw” GPS location (after the GPS module does processing to spit out a lat/long) and applies statistical methods with a model of the actual 3D geometry. Seems like a smart way to improve the accuracy from “userspace”.
This reminds me of the Comma.ai project, Laika [0]. Since they have access to the raw GPS module data (Ie the actual timings of each received satellite transmitting), they can do things such as correcting for troposphere/ionosphere delays by looking up the relevant astro data as recorded by NASA and others.
