A Literature Review On Indoor Localization and Navigation for Campus
Abstract
This project explores the design and implementation of
an offline, cross-platform indoor navigation system for college
campuses, inspired by recent advances in location-based services,
mobile notifications, and smart campus assistance. Integrating
concepts from Firebase-based mobile app control, notification-
driven scheduling, and seamless indoor localization systems, our
solution uses annotated SVG maps to construct an efficient graph
based navigation model. The application, built in Flutter, parses
these SVGs to identify key navigational nodes and edges
representing rooms, walkways, and floor transitions. Using A* for
route computation, the app provides optimal paths between any
two points while functioning entirely offline. Features like
dynamic rerouting and multi-floor handling enhance usability,
and the system leverages Flutter’s rendering capabilities for
interactive map overlays. This project demonstrates how modern
mobile technologies can offer efficient, and user-friendly indoor
navigation solutions for educational institutions.
