Electronic device for providing indoor positioning and method therefor

An electronic device comprising:

• a display;
• a camera;
• and
• one or more processors communicatively connected to the display and the camera,
• memory storing one or more computer programs including computer-executable instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the electronic device to:
• display, based on an image captured by the camera, augmented reality screen on the display,
• display a point in the augmented reality screen on the display, the point moving in association with movement of the electronic device,
• identify a spot selected by a user input in the augmented reality screen,
• display a guide area comprising the selected spot in the augmented reality screen,
• store sensor information comprising a magnetometer value measured while the point is moving within the guide area,
• store radio signal intensity information measured while the point is moving within the guide area, and
• correct the magnetometer value included in the sensor information by using a reference direction and a direction of the electronic device at a point in time when the magnetometer value is measured, and
• wherein the point corresponds to a measurement spot where a line extending in a direction perpendicular to a real area corresponding to the guide area from a specific spot of the electronic device meets the real area.
