ABSTRACT
The emergence of modern technologies and widespread access to the Internet has led to an increase in interest in mapping websites. The data provided by online mapping geoportals is a rich source of information for society. Today, thanks to these geoportals, the location of objects in the field is widely available. This approach makes it possible to locate objects that are not visible in the field, such as underground electrical cables, underground water lines, or property boundaries. The technology used for object localization is GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System). GNSS technology is based on the transmission of signals from satellites. However, this technology is limited in areas where satellite signals are restricted, such as high-rise buildings in city centers, dense forests, or tunnels. NFC technology is becoming increasingly available thanks to mobile phones that are equipped with NFC tags. This technology is widely used for payments via a mobile phone. This article presents a method of using the near-field communication (NFC) for easy positioning of infrastructure objects in a given area. This technology is particularly useful in areas with limited GNSS signals, such as urbanized, forested, or mountainous areas.
