Universal Navigation on Smartphones

Abstract

Today’s outdoor navigation systems are based on various advanced technologies. The main technologies include geo-positioning to determine the current location of a user in real time (e.g., using GPS), wireless communication to obtain updated data about traffic and weather in real time and/or to provide navigation services via remote servers, and database for storage of spatial and non-spatial data in the form of networks (e.g., road networks). GIS databases are the main source of data for outdoor navigation systems. Using these technologies and appropriate algorithms, outdoor navigation systems perform such functions as: data retrieval, e.g., finding points of interests (POIs), map creation (rendering a map at a specific scale), mapping, e.g., zoom in/out, geocoding (finding coordinates of POIs, origin or destination addresses), routing (finding optimal routes from current location to a given destination or between pairs of origin and destination locations), navigation (tracking the movement of the user during a trip), and directions (a set of instructions to assist the user with a given route). Usability features of outdoor navigation systems include mode of travel (driving, walking, riding in a wheelchair or on a bike), map presentation (road segments and networks, sidewalk segments and networks), navigation situation (static, dynamic), purpose of trip (commute, emergency, leisure), and user’s preferences with respect to POIs, routes, and map presentation.
