Traditionally indoor routing has been based on signals

Example of hospital in

Trento

(GA 621040)

Recently, accurate indoor localisation technologies are now

available for indoor Location Based Services (LBS)

(GA 621040)

•

Commercially availabile solutions are essentially

based on triangulation of radio signal (GPS, WiFi,

Bluetooth, ZigBee, mobile telephone cells)

•

They should ensure«data fusion» to handle, in an

integrated way, localisation both indoor and outdoor.

•

Accuracy varies from few meters (WiFi) down to few

centimeters (Bluetooth, ZigBee)

All market analysts agree that market of indoor LBS is

set to grow in the next 4 years to a multi-billion market.

Three main barriers limit the use of hybrid

indoor/outdoor LBS

•

Lack of indoor maps available as open data.

•

Lack of technological ecosystems that can

use this data for innovative location, routing

and asset management services within indoor

& outdoor scenarios.

•

Limited support for indoor/outdoor LBS by

Scope of i-locate

i-locate overcomes these barriers through:

1) The creation of a public geoportal (“hub”) for indoor

mapping

data

(e.g.

“indoor

complement”

to

OpenStreetMap), to share (as open data) GI of publicly

accessible indoor spaces.

2) The creation of an open source i-locate toolkit to enable

interoperable indoor/outdoor location and tracking of

asset (material & people) for innovative LBS businesses.

3) The extension of

current standards to support

indoor/outdoor LBS based on privacy & security

policies, for the highest protection of personal/critical

data.

4) The development of a mobile client (App) accessing the

toolkit’s services via such standards.

(12)

i-locate addresses three scenarios:

•

Scenario 2: Smart tracking and asset

management for lean asset

management models

•

Scenario 1: guidance of patients

through an health care path

Objective 1: to create a «virtual hub» for indoor

mapping

•

Private buildings accessible to the public

•

Private properties

•

Provision of interoperable indoor/outdoor LBS

•

Web- and mobile-based visualisation and

management of open indoor GI

•

Crowdsourcing-oriented provision of open GI

regarding indoor/outdoor spaces

•

Objective 3: The creation of mobile

client-side technologies

App for iOS and/or Android devices capable to

access the toolkit’s services

(23)

Objective 4: specific privacy and

security policies

Technology and the pilots will be built upon a Privacy

Impact Assessment (PIA) and a TVRA (Threat, Vulnerability

and Risk Analyses)

(24)

(GA 621040)

Objective 5: The use of current location based

standards

•

To leverage on CityGML / IndoorGML

•

Other contributions on privacy/security standard may be required

•

Interoperability is necessary to maximise takeover and impact of

months-within a real-life operational scenario

•

Smart tracking & asset management for lean

management models, with the involvement of public

health stakeholders, several city councils and a

business park.

•

Guidance of patients through an health care path,

with the involvement –as final downstream users- of

several hospitals and an elderly persons nursing

home.

•

Guiding visitors to reach indoor locations, with the
