To improve pedestrian accessibility through route guidance adjusted to the individual characteristics of each pedestrian, the following studies, investigations, and developments were performed. First, the information necessary for transfers and the method of collecting this information were studied and evaluated through field verifications. As a result, data collection applications on smartphones were adopted as a low-cost and continuous method for information collection. Second, demonstration experiments to develop walking networks using the data collection application were implemented. In addition, the serviceability of common platform information was evaluated using a prototype personal navigation application on smartphones, and a field verification of route guidance corresponding to the personal attributes of pedestrians. Furthermore, cooperation between personal navigation systems and advanced PICS was studied. A large-scale demonstration experiment regarding route guidance will be performed in October 2018.
