Summary: | Indoor spatial data forms an important foundation to many ubiquitous computing applications. It gives context to users operating
location-based applications, provides an important source of documentation of buildings and can be of value to computer systems
where an understanding of environment is required. Unlike external geographic spaces, no centralised body or agency is charged
with collecting or maintaining such information. Widespread deployment of mobile devices provides a potential tool that would
allow rapid model capture and update by a building's users. Here we introduce some of the issues involved in volunteering building
interior data and outline a simple mobile tool for capture of indoor models. The nature of indoor data is inherently private; however
in-depth analysis of this issue and legal considerations are not discussed in detail here. |
