A wireless positioning system is provided which includes a point information transmitter and a wireless positioning terminal carried by a user to communicate wirelessly with the point information transmitter. The point information transmitter is installed at a predetermined installation position and transmits point information including at least magnetic correction information to correct a geomagnetic bias at the installation position. The wireless positioning terminal includes an orientation detector to detect an orientation based on geomagnetism and a correction section to correct the orientation detected by the orientation detector based on the magnetic correction information included in the point information received from the point information transmitter.
