Abstract
Indoor positioning information is received for positioning a user within a structure including at least one passageway and one or more bookmarks, a bookmark including a location of the bookmark within the structure, and a function for operating the passageway, when the bookmark is activated. Location of the user is determined and compared with the locations of the bookmarks. At least one bookmark is determined to be activated and activated, on the basis of the correspondence of the user's location and the locations of the bookmarks. Current operational state and future operational state of the passageway are determined for controlling the passageway from the current operational state towards the future operational state that is determined on the basis of the activated bookmarks. The controlling is performed, when the current operational state and the future operational state are different.
