Pioneering Tech for Large Sites: Navigation Solution for Facility Management [Indoor Positioning]

CINCINNATI - May 8, 2019 - PRLog -- Large sites such as manufacturing facilities, corporate campuses, healthcare centers, shopping malls, and resorts among other spaces need the right navigation solution for facility management. With an indoor positioning system, venues such as these and many others can manage them facility optimally.

Pioneering Technology - Indoor Positioning System as Navigation Solution

An indoor positioning system is based on Geolocation technology. This allows venue managers to tap into Wi-Fi, Ultra-wideband (UWB), Radio Frequency Identification (RFID), magnetic waves, beacons, etc. to determine the position of an asset indoors.

This positioning, in turn, helps users to find points of interest within the facility and navigate through step-by-step directions. Like GPS helps us navigate outdoors through precise directions, an indoor positioning system is the perfect navigation solution to locate assets or people indoors.

Sometimes referred to as indoor location technology, this pioneering tech can simplify the way users access a facility, individually or in groups. Here are the top benefits of indoor positioning (https://pigeon.srisys.com/) technology:

Navigation Solution - Requirements for Facility Management

Here are a few hardware requirements for a navigation solution to work in a large venue for optimal facility management:

• Wi-Fi or Bluetooth
• Beacons
• Smartphones/Tablets/Desktops
• Asset Location Map
• Precise Floor Plans

In addition to these, it is important for the facility administrators to understand how an indoor positioning system can double-up not just as a navigation solution but as an indoor collaboration tool.

For facilities which witness a huge footfall on a regular basis, the navigation solution when used as an app also works towards promoting brands through location-based service and proximity marketing.
