a sensing apparatus generating sensor data; and

a controller in electronic communication with the position reference system, the pressure sensor, and the acceleration sensor, the controller comprising:

a processor; and

a memory comprising computer-executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to perform operations, the operations comprising:

detecting a first location of the conveyance apparatus at a first time using the position reference system;

detecting a second location of the conveyance apparatus at a second time using at least one of the pressure sensor and the acceleration sensor; and

determining that the second location is equivalent to the first location if the second time is within a selected range of the first time;

determining a health level of the conveyance system by processing the sensor data and assigning a determined health level to the second location.

11. The system of claim 10 , wherein the operations further comprise:

normalizing location detection of the pressure sensor based on the second location being equivalent to the first location.

12. The system of claim 10 , wherein the operations further comprise:

normalizing location detection of the acceleration sensor based on the second location being equivalent to the first location.

determining that the conveyance apparatus is not in motion at the second time using at least the acceleration sensor.

18. The system of claim 10 , wherein the conveyance system is an elevator system and the conveyance apparatus is an elevator car.

19. A computer program product embodied on a non-transitory computer readable medium, the computer program product including instructions that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to perform operations comprising:

detecting a first location of the conveyance apparatus at a first time using a position reference system;

detecting a second location of the conveyance apparatus at a second time using at least one of a pressure sensor located on the conveyance apparatus and an acceleration sensor located on the conveyance apparatus;

determining that the second location is equivalent to the first location if the second time is within a selected range of the first time;

receiving sensor data from a sensing apparatus; and

determining a health level of the conveyance system by processing the sensor data and assigning a determined health level to the second location.
