Indoor mapping has become a necessity for businesses and their customers in the 21st century. Businesses and customers expect the same positioning and navigation services when they’re inside a facility as outside. Magnasoft offers a broad set of indoor mapping technology services for capturing location data that underpin 2D and 3D indoor maps that support business-critical decision making processes and meet customer expectations. Magnasoft has completed over 5,000 projects in indoor mapping of airports, campuses, manufacturing and processing plants and works closely with IoT manufacturers, which helps us understand your business needs and provide the best possible solution to your business problem.

Whatever your 2D or 3D indoor mapping technology needs may be, Magnasoft has got you covered: we are experienced in providing the best indoor mapping services, mapping industries, public & private indoor places using laser scanned point cloud data since 2008 globally. Our key offerings include spatial reality capture, positioning and indexing, IoT and enterprise integration, content updating, routing and wayfinding. One important differentiator is Magnasoft’s experience with IoT, having worked directly with device manufacturers and telecom networks, which has widened our understanding of the IoT landscape.
Magnasoft Indoor Mapping key offerings include:
Spatial reality capture using LiDAR indoor mapping, Positioning and indexing, IoT and enterprise integration, Content updation, Routing and wayfinding
To create an indoor map for navigational purposes, a building’s floor plan or architectural drawings are converted into a 2D or 3D digital representation of a facility inside an enterprise system. Next, the different walls, hallways, stores, inaccessible spaces and linkages from one floor to another are identified and accurately mapped using professional surveying/imagery technology on-site. That data is processed and combined with the digital model, resulting in a 2D or 3D digitally “intelligent” representation of the facility that can be used to support business-critical decisions and processes, such as routing, locating assets or plant maintenance.
While building accurate indoor maps is critical, maintaining indoor maps and keeping them up to date are mandatory for providing the best possible user experience. Not only do indoor locations change over time, the same goes for the assets that are located inside these spaces. This is why it’s important to keep your indoor maps up-to-date with the latest available data.
Indoor mapping technology uses the same concepts as GPS-based positioning and mapping, only for indoor spaces. An indoor map uses 2D or 3D digital data obtained from laser scanning or images to accurately visualize a closed, indoor space, including its assets and people. This information is used for applications such as positioning, navigation and wayfinding. Mapping indoor locations has been a challenge for years due to the lack of GPS reception in buildings, which is required for accurate positioning and mapping. However, the development of workarounds using different positioning solutions enabled accurate positioning in real-time of indoor spaces that have led to new and exciting business applications that rely on indoor location mapping. A popular indoor mapping example is a routing app for large venues that host conferences that can be accessed on a mobile phone.
To create an indoor map for navigational purposes, a building’s floor plan or architectural drawings are converted into a digital 2D or 3D intelligent model. Walls, hallways, stores, inaccessible spaces and linkages from one floor to another then need to be identified and accurately mapped using professional surveying/imagery technology (LiDAR indoor mapping in the case of Magnasoft). Indoor mapping companies have different options in terms of position technology for indoors, such as Wi-Fi or Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE), or indoor mapping solutions based on Ultra-wideband (UWB) or passive RFID. After data capture and processing, a final 2D or 3D map of the indoor space is generated tailored to the application at hand, for example generating a 3D routing solution from scratch, or updating an existing solution using newly captured data.
Creating and maintaining an indoor map can be challenging. While building accurate maps is critical, maintaining your maps and keeping them up to date are mandatory for providing the best possible user experience. Not only do indoor locations change over time, the same goes for the assets that are located inside these spaces. For example, a building may be expanded, which requires additional data capture. Or, the function or ownership of a venue changes over time, requiring new indoor location capture to suit new necessities. Whatever your indoor mapping needs may be, Magnasoft has got you covered: we are experienced in mapping industries, public & private indoor places using laser scanned point cloud data since 2008 globally. Our key offerings include spatial reality capture, positioning and indexing, IoT and enterprise integration, content updating, routing and wayfinding using the latest indoor mapping tools (software and technology).
Indoor mapping forms the basis for many daily business-critical operations. For example, real-time knowledge of the location of people or objects has become essential for the deployment of services in retail, logistics, urban planning, leisure activities and more. While indoor navigation systems help visitors find the shortest route to their destination directly on their mobile phone, mobile indoor mapping data provides retailers with information about buying patterns, foot traffic and demographics that they can use for business analytics. It can also enhance safety by showing the nearest exits based on the real-time location of a visitor inside a venue in case of an emergency. Additionally, indoor mapping provides remote maintenance and monitoring opportunities of industrial plants, eliminating site visits that cost money and time, while new AEC facilities can be planned based on existing indoor mapping data.
Different industries are using indoor mapping and navigation to support their business-critical operations, improve safety or overall customer experiences. Examples of businesses using indoor mapping data services are retail, real estate, transport & healthcare firms and Architecture, Engineering and Construction (AEC) firms. They all understand the value of up-to-date indoor location and maps to provide a better experience for their customers or employees, whether these are currently physically present inside the venue or remotely accessing the indoor data for inspection or planning purposes. Additionally, indoor maps and indoor location data of visitors can help businesses, organizations and individuals help maintain social distancing in real-time due to its unique characteristics.
