There are definitely more expensive (and correspondingly better performing) systems out there, but the reason why I got the Decawave system was because it's available on Digikey for under $1000. The TREK1000 kit appears to do localization as one of its featured example use cases. (They only had the EVK1000 when I bought mine, so I have to get a couple of them to do full positioning.) The limited testing I've done so far suggests that they perform well within the advertised 10cm accuracy.
