indoor mapping solutions<\/a> offering for B2B and B2C, which would unlock new opportunities for workspace optimization, factory movement tracking, and facility navigation. This decision required moving their legacy indoor solutions onto the latest technology stack and merging them into their production map compilation ecosystem.<\/p>\nExperiencing a shortage of in-house development capacity, the company conducted a quick search for a reliable technology partner. The choice was obvious for them. Having actively collaborated on large automotive programs since 2015, Intellias was entrusted to take up the project.<\/p>\n
Technology solution<\/h2>\n
We started our cooperation by analyzing the capacity required for a comprehensive development phase. The Intellias team is divided into three sub-teams.<\/p>\n
The first sub-team works on tools for creating and administering venue maps, including a web portal for venue editing. These tools let venue owners create their own private venue maps and upload them to our client\u2019s system. Our second team develops RESTful web services for indexing and searching for venues, which is aimed at end consumers. The third team is responsible for integrating venue maps into mobile mapping apps for iOS and Android devices.<\/p>\n
Our teams actively participate in the development of our client\u2019s last-meter guidance service, bridging the gap between outdoor and indoor navigation. This service can guide a driver directly to a free parking space inside a private or public venue based on live parking data. The service is synchronized with a driver\u2019s mobile device and enables building accurate routes from the parking space to a specific location inside a mall, airport, or train station.<\/p>\n
Business outcomes<\/h2>\n
We\u2019re growing our relationship and defining a new global standard for indoor mapping. Currently, our efforts are focused on increasing the number of onboarded venue map providers that supply multi-format data such as CAD drawings, floor plans, photos, and JSON and XML files. These inputs are then converted into our client\u2019s unified indoor mapping format.<\/p>\n
Additionally, we\u2019re actively promoting indoor maps on the web and on platforms including Google Maps and Yahoo Maps. This will allow venue owners to place and display maps of their venues on a variety of platforms so end users can navigate and search for points of interest.<\/p>\n
