AR navigation solution using vector tiles
Taru Rustagi, Kyungjin Yoo · 2018
This study discusses the results and findings of an augmented reality navigation app that was created using vector data uploaded to an online mapping software for indoor navigation. The main objective of this research is to determine the current issues with a solution of indoor navigation that relies on the use of GPS signals, as these signals are sparse in buildings. The data was uploaded in the form of GeoJSON files to MapBox which relayed the data to the app using an API in the form of Tilesets. The application converted the tilesets to a miniaturized map and calculated the navigation path, and then overlaid that navigation line onto the floor via the camera.
