localization precision

Localization precision refers to the accuracy with which a system, such as a GPS device or a detector, can identify the exact position of an object or event. It indicates how closely the measured position corresponds to the true location. High localization precision means the system can determine positions very accurately, with minimal error. Factors influencing this include measurement quality, environmental conditions, and the technology used. Essentially, it measures the reliability of position estimates, ensuring that the reported location is as close to the actual point as possible.
