Determining emitter locations

A method comprising:

• obtaining, from each sensing device of a plurality of sensing devices having a known path of travel, information corresponding to radio signals received at respective sensing devices from one or more terrestrial emitter devices;
• determining, using the information obtained from the plurality of sensing devices, a particular radio signal from a target emitter device;
• selecting a particular terrestrial location as a candidate location for the target emitter device;
• for each sensing device of the plurality of sensing devices:
• determining a relationship between the candidate location and the sensing device, using the information corresponding to the particular radio signal obtained from the sensing device and the known path of travel of the sensing device, and
• computing an estimate of the particular radio signal using the determined relationship;
• and
• determining an estimate of energy emitted from the candidate location using estimates of the particular radio signal computed for the plurality of sensing devices.
