Calibrating a positioning system comprising a plurality of anchor nodes used to determine tag positions within a localization area using radio technology. The method includes performing, at a plurality of first measurement points in the localization area using the localization tag, first ranging measurements with respect to the plurality of anchor nodes using the radio technology to determine respective first distances from the measurement device to the plurality of anchor nodes and performing, at the plurality of first measurement points using the at least one odometry sensor, first odometry measurements to estimate respective first positions of the measurement device in the localization area, estimating locations of the plurality of anchor nodes based on the respective first distances determined by the first ranging measurements and the respective first positions estimated by the first odometry measurements, and calibrating the positioning system using the estimated locations of the plurality of anchor nodes.
