INDOOR MAPPING CHALLENGES

Strict requirements make data conversion complex.

Indoor mapping requires both spatial & tabular data.

Venues are constantly changing.

AVF is complex

CREATING INDOOR DATA

● Pull from multiple sources, like:

○ GeoJSON, IFC, Autodesk, FBX,Esri, Oracle, IBM TRIRIGA,MicroStation, CityGML, OSM,Databases, Excel …

● Build a multi-step workflow usingAVF as input and output, and enrichat each step.

first

Read source data

Integrate internal datamodels, BIM, CAD …

Prepare for output

Convert the data toAVF standards.

Validate data

Send it through theAVFValidator.

third

Write to output

Write to AVF andsend the output to

Apple.

LOOKING AHEAD …

Create a “digital twin” using a feedback loop with:

● Real-time sensors.

● Crowdsourced observations.

● Spatial and tabular data.

“FME is the ‘ETL glue’between geo platforms tokeep data up to date and insync.”

INDOOR MAPPING LESSONS LEARNED SO FAR

● Converting data for indoor mapping can be a challenge.● CAD standards help, but more info is needed.● Big win going between standards, e.g. TRIRIGA to AVF● Leverage existing tools, e.g. GeoJSON import for SAP HANA.● Build a multi-step workflow using AVF as input and output, and

enrich AVF at each step.● Extend internal data model based on indoor requirements.

SUMMARY

● Connect to various indoor mapping formats with FME 2018.● Ensure data meets requirements.

○ e.g. use the AVFValidator to ensure you meet Apple standards.○ Check FME Hub for more transformers and templates.

● Use FME Server or FME Cloud to run the workflow repeatedly.
