Universal structural map for indoor navigation in university campus

Mapmodeling is an important aspect of indoor navigation. It involves creating a digital map of the indoor environment that can be used for navigation purposes. The map can be created using various techniques such as laser scanning, photogrammetry, and computer vision. Once the map is created, it can be used to develop navigation algorithms that can help users navigate the indoor environment. In this paper, we propose a solution based on CAD files. These models can be used for a variety of purposes, includingindoor navigation. There are many CAD applications available, including AutoCAD, SketchUp, and SolidWorks, among others. It is a relatively cheap method to model any indoor environment from scans of plans or CAD files. CAD files are the most accurate way to build a digital indoor map because these files can include 2D or 3D designs and usually contain important location information (e.g. floor level) within the layer properties. Moreover, we can map the CAD annotation to the following feature classes if they conform to the indoors model: types of rooms, types of doors, etc. We propose a solution based on DXF format files. We developed the parser to transfer the necessary data from the CAD files to the navigation system. It consists of processing existing maps from the CAD format to the appropriate structure, supplementing it with the data of BLE transmitters, and saving it as a graph suitable for determining routes and guiding the user along the route. We use our method in a system that supports navigation and user safety, emphasizing users with special needs, which we are implementing on our academic campus.
