Abstract:
ABSTRACT: As indoor spaces become more complex, and information technology develops, there is a growing use of devices that help users with a variety of tasks in indoor space. Outdoor spatial informatics is well developed, with GIS at their core. Indoor spatial informatics is less well developed, and there is currently a lack of integration between outdoor and indoor spatial information systems. This paper reports on the development of a research agenda for the integration of outdoor and indoor spaces that has proceeded as part of two research projects funded by the USA National Science Foundation and the Korean Land Spatialization Group. The paper discusses potential application domains. Also discussed are a variety of models of indoor space and unified outdoor-indoor space, from formal models through data models, to functional models related to usability of indoor and outdoor-indoor information systems
