Implementation & Case Study

This chapter discusses the theories, models, and approaches for indoor-outdoor seamless navigation path planning. The buildings indicate I-spaces, hand railings, enclosing walls and fences serve as physical boundaries. Shelters represents areas of sI-spaces. Roads and green areas are sO-spaces and O-spaces. The classification of the footprints will be used as the semantic of the spaces reconstructed based on them, for instance, a semi-outdoor road footprint will be reconstructed into a sO-space in the following step. On one hand, indoor spaces are able to be set as departures, destinations or transitions, and on the other hand, the navigation path includes the indoor parts. The path shows that seamless navigation is possible and there is no difference between indoor and outdoor from a navigation point of view. In computations of path length, this distance is adjusted based on the structures in the navigation path planning.
