Challenges in flying quadrotor unmanned aerial vehicle for 3D indoor reconstruction

Three-dimensional modelling plays a vital role in indoor 3D tracking, navigation, guidance and emergency evacuation. Reconstruction of indoor 3D models is still problematic, in part, because indoor spaces provide challenges less-documented than their outdoor counterparts. Challenges include obstacles curtailing image and point cloud capture,...

Using Existing Wi-Fi networks to Provide Information on Occupancy and Exploitation of Educational Facilities using at Delft University of Technology

This executive summary provides an overview of the work done by project in_sight for the TU Delft MSc Geomatics for the Built Environment. The research subject is the usage of WiFi monitoring data to calculate the occupation of the TU Delft campus in order to determine the exploitation of the educational facilities.

In_sight: Using Existing Wi-Fi networks to Provide Information on Occupancy and Exploitation of Educational Facilities using at Delft University of Technology

The distribution of people in buildings, the occupancy of lecture-, work- and study places and the accessibility of facilities are essential information at university campuses who have to cope with limited and even shrinking budgets and huge, rising real estate costs. Only little insight is gained in both occupancy and movement patterns with...
