A geolocation system on a platform, for example, an airplane, to identify a location of a signal emitting site includes an inertial navigation system and an array of signal detectors. A first subset of the detectors is on a flexing portion of the platform and a second subset of detectors is on a rigid portion of the platform. An inertial measurement unit is disposed adjacent to each of the detectors on the flexing portion. A locator module is configured to: calculate a respective velocity and a respective position of each one of the detectors positioned on the flexing portion as a function of respective inertial measurement data; and determine a position of the emitter as a function of the calculated velocity, calculated position, inertial navigation data, the detected signal data and data defining a flexure relationship between the flexing and rigid portions of the platform.
