    You didn't give many details. Are you going to measure the transmission time from each of three or more access points and then translate the transmission time into a distance? I'm guessing the differences in response time will wipe out any useful data.

    Or are you going to read the real GPS signal with your handheld and transmit it via wireless LAN? Why do you need to transmit it?

    @#-Link-Snipped-#: I am not sure what problem you are facing using Google Maps API provided by Android? It can help you to locate your own indoor area on a map and then you can use little bit of creativity and programming to add objects to the map and then use their relative locations(instead of Google location) to locate the object.

    Let me know if it was of help !
