IMCM: 各階平面図を利用した屋内地図データ簡易作成手法

抄録

We propose a new method for the creation of indoor map data, as well as of the path planning system that connects outdoor areas with indoor areas. First, taking an example of shopping malls as a public facilities, the expression of indoor map data has been considered from the standpoint of information transmissions and searching. Next, the result is reflected and the indoor map data of Tokyo Midtown was created using the floorplan. In Japan, it is mandatory to submit a detailed floorplan for each floor to the Legal Affairs Bureau in registering a real estate, and the floorplans are made available for the public for viewing. This makes it possible to build a database of indoor maps on a national scale. We propose a new method which anyone can create in a short time as the creation method of indoor map data. Reference to geographical coordinates and network data are given to the indoor map data, in order to do loose coupling on the doorway as a node. Through this process, a path planning system that seamlessly connects outdoor and indoor maps can be created.
