Indoor Mapping and Wayfinding

Overview

Geographic Information Systems (GIS) are revolutionizing airport terminal navigation and passenger experience through advanced indoor mapping and wayfinding solutions. By creating detailed, interactive maps of indoor spaces, GIS enables travelers, airport staff, and stakeholders to easily navigate complex terminal environments.

These GIS-powered systems enhance operational efficiency, improve passenger flow, and support real-time location tracking for services and amenities. Airports can leverage indoor GIS to streamline operations, reduce congestion, and deliver a more seamless travel experience.

Use Cases

Terminal Design and Renovation Planning
GIS supports the integration of wayfinding technology upgrades such as mapping passenger movement patterns and facility layouts to improve access and navigation within the airport. During construction or delays, GIS enables dynamic routing through updated digital signage and mobile app notifications, helping passengers avoid closed areas, reduce walking distances, and maintain a smooth travel experience.
Retail and Concession Optimization
GIS enhances indoor mapping and wayfinding by tracking passenger movement patterns and identifying high-traffic areas within terminals. This spatial insight allows airports to strategically position shops and restaurants for maximum visibility and accessibility.
Airport Parking
GIS supports dynamic routing from terminal exits to available parking spots, including ADA-accessible spaces and EV charging stations. Routes can be personalized based on flight terminal, walking distance, or parking preferences.
Accessibility Routing
GIS helps design and validate accessible routes for passengers with disabilities supporting tactile signage, elevator access, and audio navigation systems.
