Illustratively, the third device is an IOT device and the second device is a handset.

Scheme 5: the method comprises the steps of using a first Serial Number (SN) of a second device or a second serial number of a third device as a unique primary key, associating second active information reported by the second device and first active information reported by the third device, and storing the second active information and the first active information in a database;

flow 6: first active information compensation method of the plurality of third devices:

the active time and active position, the active equipment type, the positioning mode and the first serial number or the second serial number are reserved when the active information is extracted once, wherein the serial number can be used as a unique identifier, and the incidental attributes are as follows: time, place. Illustratively, the positioning mode is GPS or WIFI, etc.

3. networking state order of locating device types:

the mobile and normal networking equipment > timing networking;

illustratively: the tablet computer > the router > the television;

according to the three attributes, a first active information accuracy formula is obtained as follows:

evaluation value (IOT device offset accuracy) = (k 1 positioning function accuracy) × (k 2 positioning device number B) × (k 3 positioning device type);
