Indoor & Outdoor Wayfinding
Guiding people from the entrance to the exact destination.
Wayfinding is the operational capability of moving people from where they are to where they need to be, across outdoor grounds and indoor environments. MCB provides maintained wayfinding that spans the full path, not just the street.
The Operational Challenge
Most wayfinding stops at the front door.
External maps get visitors to a building. Indoor environments, where the destination actually is, are left to signage, printed floor plans, and staff. The handoff between outdoor and indoor navigation is where most people lose their way.
- Outdoor navigation ends at the building; indoor destinations are unguided.
- Multi-level indoor routing is poorly served by static floor plans.
- Wayfinding information is maintained separately, if at all, and drifts out of date.
Functional Description
What this capability does.
MCB provides maintained indoor and outdoor wayfinding as a single capability. The environment is mapped from the street to the specific room, desk, or service, and the routing is distributed through web and mobile experiences and kept current through the administrative environment.
- Indoor routing depends on mapped floor plans and documented pathways.
- Wayfinding integrates with the destination's directories and real-time updates.
- Routing is maintained as part of the environment record, not as a static guide.
