Abstract

Methods, systems, and devices are described. Indoor wayfinding may be performed using a set of layers overlayed on a map, such as a site map of the surrounding environment of a building, using a combination of static and dynamic images. For example, a user device may transmit a request to a server for a route to a desired location of a floor of a building. In some cases, the server may, in response to the request, generate the route using a set of map layers that includes a static image of the site, a static image of a floor plan of the floor housing the location, a vector image of features such as rooms and offices of the floor that includes the desired location, and a vector image of a route from a starting location of the floor, such as an entrance or elevator, and the desired location.
