Embodiments of the invention are directed to methods and systems for using local positioning beacons to create precise augmented reality images. Embodiments of the invention are also directed to providing different types of augmented reality images to different types of devices and/or individuals.

Claim (Index 31):
A method comprising:\n surveying, using surveying equipment, a real environment including existing physical elements, with one or more targets positioned at one or more control points in the real environment to determine coordinates including Northing, Easting, and Elevation coordinates of the one or more control points in relation to a real-world coordinate system; importing the coordinates of the one or more surveyed control points into a 3D modeling computer; generating, using the 3D modeling computer, a 3D digital model including the existing physical elements in relation to the real-world coordinate system; generating, using the 3D modeling computer, a first 3D digital model including a first future physical element; incorporating, using the 3D modeling computer, the first 3D digital model including the first future physical element at a first location within or proximate the 3D digital model including the existing physical elements, such that the first future physical element is associated with a first future physical element location in the real-world coordinate system; associating the first future physical element with a first category; storing a first data file comprising the first 3D digital model including the first future physical element, first future physical element location data, and a first category indicator; generating, using the 3D modeling computer, a second 3D digital model including a second future physical element; incorporating, using the 3D modeling computer, the second 3D digital model including the second future physical element at a second location within or proximate the 3D digital model including the existing physical elements, such that the second future physical element is associated with a second future physical element location in the real-world coordinate system; associating the second future physical element with a second category; and storing a second data file comprising the second 3D digital model including the second future physical element, second future physical element location data, and a second category indicator, wherein a first mobile device position of a first mobile device associated with the first category is determined based on communications between a plurality of beacon devices and the first mobile device, wherein, when the determined first mobile device position is within a predetermined region associated with the first future physical element, an augmented reality image based on the first data file is displayed at the first mobile device, the augmented reality image comprising a real view of the real environment seen through a camera of the first mobile device in real-time overlaid with the first 3D digital model including the first future physical element at the first future physical element location, wherein a second mobile device position of a second mobile device associated with the second category is determined based on communications between the plurality of beacon devices and the second mobile device, and wherein, when the determined second mobile device position is within a predetermined region associated with the second future physical element, an augmented reality image based on the second data file is displayed at the second mobile device, the augmented reality image comprising a real view of the real environment seen through the camera of the second mobile device in real-time overlaid with the second 3D digital model including the second future physical element at the second future physical element location.
