1. A method for indicating positioning of tags in a real time locating system, the method comprising: receiving layout information of a work area; analayzing, by a processor, the layout information of the work area in terms of a plurilty of access points in the work area; determining, by the processor, positioning information for the plurality of access points in the work area, wherein the plurality of access points have been advantageously positioned based on the analyzed layout information of the work area; determining, by the processor, an expected location of a tag that is within the work area based on the positioning information, the expected location allowing the tag to satisfy a coverage threshold for the tag that identifies the tag as capable of detecting a set condition within a set coverage range within the work area; determining a level of accuracy for the location of the tag by comparing a physical location information of the tag to the expected location of the tag; and providing the positioning information and the level accuracy.
