A system and method for tracing polygons in a drawing source file. The method includes extracting vector imagery from the source file, creating a planar representation of the vector imagery as a plurality of lines, filtering the plurality of lines to create simplified line art, morphologically dilating the simplified line art to generate a polygonal approximation, calculating geometric difference between the source file canvas bounds and the polygonal approximation to identify contracted polygons, morphologically dilating the contracted polygons to create visual polygons, and filtering the visual polygons according to one or more geometric parameters to identify salient polygons.

Systems and methods for providing indoor navigation to emergency services are disclosed. The methods involve storing at least one electronic map of a facility and at least one annotation for the at least one electronic map. The at least one annotation can be representative of a service resource within the facility. The method also involves receiving a traversed area from at least one computing device within the facility during an event; determining a total traversed area based on the traversed area from each of the at least one computing device during the event; and providing the at least one annotation and the total traversed area within the at least one electronic map to be displayed on at least one graphical user interface.

Systems and methods of indoor navigation for emergency services

Systems and methods for creating electronic indoor maps for emergency services are provided. The system has a processor operatively coupled to at least one storage unit and a communication component, the processor being configured for: receiving a service provider identifier from a computing device of at least one computing device; granting the computing device access to an annotation layer of an electronic map of at least one electronic map based on the service provider identifier; generating at least one annotation in response to receiving at least one selection of a service resource within a facility from the computing device; and storing the at least one annotation in the annotation layer.

Systems and methods for semantic segmentation of a source geometry are provided. The method includes providing a vector image of a location; generating a raster image from the vector image, the raster image including at least one partition, the at least one partition including a plurality of pixels; assigning a pixel class label to each of the plurality of pixels, the pixel class label including a usage type; and assigning a partition class label to the at least one partition based on the pixel class labels assigned to the plurality of pixels, wherein the partition class label includes a usage type for the partition.

Methods, devices, and systems for indoor mapping are described herein. The methods include providing an indoor map containing a current location of a user device, the indoor map having a containing exterior space, a contained interior space within the containing exterior space, and a linkage, the linkage having a coordinate transformation to project coordinates of the interior space onto coordinates of the exterior space. The methods also include receiving a point of interest, determining a path from the current location to the point of interest, the current location and the point of interest being in walkable areas, the path including a transition between the interior space and the exterior space, and providing instructions to navigate along the path, the coordinates of the interior space and the coordinates of the exterior space are referenced by either the instructions prior to the transition and the instructions after the transition.

Space graph systems and methods for indoor mapping

A computer-readable storage medium encoded with a data structure for describing a map of a facility having venue elements is provided. Each venue element has at least one map, structural metadata and a plurality of walkable areas. A method of providing navigation instructions is also provided. The method includes providing a facility map, determining a destination on the facility map, selecting a path type, determining a target route between a current location and the destination, the target route being associated with the path type, and determining a navigation instruction along the target route.

Systems and methods for indoor mapping

A system and method for generating a three-dimensional (3D) map of a facility is provided. The system has at least one processor and a memory having stored thereon instructions that, upon execution by the at least one processor, cause the system to perform functions comprising: receiving a two-dimensional (2D) map of the facility; converting or importing the 2D map to a base map; generating or editing polygons on the base map, each polygon representative of a facility unit in the base map; generating one or more perspectives at one or more points on the base map to generate the 3D map.

Systems and methods for generating a three-dimensional map

Provided is a system and a method for generating a printable map of a facility. The method includes receiving a request sent by a device at a print server, retrieving electronic wayfinding data by the print server, generating an initial printable map based on the electronic wayfinding data, displaying the initial printable map on the device, receiving one or more customizations entered on the device by a user, and updating the initial printable map to include the one or more customizations.

Systems and methods for generating printable maps

A facility wayfinding system is provided which includes an interactive public display device and a mobile device, running a mobile wayfinding application. The interactive public display device, which is situated at a first location within a facility, displays a facility map showing facility units, receives a user selection of a facility unit as a second location, and displays a route from the first location to the second location on the facility map. The mobile device also displays the facility map, displays a route from a start location to a destination location on the facility map, and updates the start location to the first location and the destination location to the second location by synchronizing with the interactive public display device.
