Relative positioning of a mobile computing device in a network

A computer system for determining a relative position for each computing device of a group of computing devices within a wireless network to a computing device within the wireless network, the computer system comprising:

• one or more computer processors;
• one or more computer readable storage devices;
• program instructions stored on the one or more computer readable storage devices for execution by at least one of the one or more computer processors, the stored program instructions comprising:
• program instructions to receive a set of digital image files from each computing device of the group of computing devices within the wireless network, wherein receiving the set of digital image files includes receiving at least one of:
• a digital image file from a photograph taken straight ahead from each of the computing devices in the group of computing devices, a set of digital image files from a set of photographs taken by one computing device in the group of computing devices, or a set of still images extracted from videos taken by one or more computing devices in the group of computing devices and wherein receiving the set of digital image files further comprises receiving, by the one or more computer processors, a distance from each computing device of the group of computing devices to at least two other computing devices in the group of computing devices within the wireless network;
• program instructions to aggregate the set of digital image files into a panoramic digital image file;
• program instructions to generate a network map depicting a position of each of computing device in the group of computing devices within the wireless network based, at least in part, on the panoramic digital image file;
• program instructions to determine a relative position map for at least one computing device based, at least in part, on the network map and the panoramic digital image file, wherein the relative position map provides a location of each computing device of the group of computing devices within the wireless network with respect to the at least one computing device, and wherein the relative position map is determined by a set of relative position angles that provide a location of each of the computing devices in the group of computing devices with respect to the at least one computing device, the set of relative position angles based, at least in part, on the panoramic digital image file;
• and
• program instructions to receive input from the at least one computing device, the input using the relative position map to send data to one or more computing devices of the group of computing devices within the wireless network.
