Abstract(s)
Existing navigation systems are very appropriate
for car navigation, but lack support for convenient
pedestrian navigation and cannot be used indoors due to
GPS limitations. In addition, the creation and the
maintenance of the required models are costly and time
consuming, and are usually based on proprietary data
structures. In this paper we describe a navigation system
based on a human inspired symbolic space model. We argue
that symbolic space models are much easier to create and to
maintain, and that they can support routing applications
based on self-locating through the recognition of nearby
features. Our symbolic space model is supported by a
federation of servers where the spatial descriptions are
stored, and which provide interfaces for feeding and
querying the model. Local models residing in different
servers may be connected between them, thus contributing
to the system scalability. 1
