Isovist Fingerprinting as new way of Indoor Localisation

Nowadays, humans rely in technology more and more when it comes to navigation and localisation and in many aspects of life as well. While most concepts related to localisation and navigation of outdoors environments are already well derived from various researches and softwares, the indoor environment remains a significantly unexplored area....

Schiphol indoor navigation application

Base on the preliminary research results, the design goal of this project is defined: Providing departing, arriving and transferring travellers a seamless experience, which makes them feel confident and relaxed during the whole process of their journey in Schiphol, including wayfinding, searching information, learning of the Dutch transport...

Indoor routing on logical network using space semantics

An indoor logical network qualitatively represents abstract relationships between indoor spaces, and it can be used for path computation. In this paper, we concentrate on the logical network that does not have notions for metrics. Instead, it relies on the semantics and properties of indoor spaces. A navigation path can be computed by...

The ISPRS benchmark on indoor modelling

Automated generation of 3D indoor models from point cloud data has been a topic of intensive research in recent years. While results on various datasets have been reported in literature, a comparison of the performance of different methods has not been possible due to the lack of benchmark datasets and a common evaluation framework. The ISPRS...

Extracting topological relations between indoor spaces from point clouds

3D models of indoor environments are essential for many application domains such as navigation guidance, emergency management and a range of indoor location-based services. The principal components defined in different BIM standards contain not only building elements, such as floors, walls and doors, but also navigable spaces and their...

An indoor navigation approach considering obstacles and space subdivision of 2D plan

The demand for indoor navigation is increasingly urgent in many applications such as safe management of underground spaces or location services in complex indoor environment, e.g. shopping centres, airports, museums, underground parking lot and hospitals. Indoor navigation is still a challenging research field, as currently applied indoor...
