For many applications particularly in navigation system, a three-dimensional representation improves the usability of information. This paper introduces 3D Graphical User Interface (GUI) of indoor location tracking system, 3D Navigation View. The application provides users a 3D visualization of the indoor environments they are exploring, synchronized with the physical world through spatial information obtained from indoor location tracking system. It adopts widely used Virtual Reality Modeling Language (VRML) to construct, represent, distribute and render 3D world of indoor environments over Internet. Java, an all-purpose programming language is integrated to comprehend spatial information received from indoor location tracking system. Both are connected through an interface called External Authoring Interface (EAI) provided by VRML. Via EAI, Java is given the authority to access and manipulate the 3D objects inside the 3D world that facilitates the indication of user's position and viewpoint in the constructed virtual indoor environments periodically.

In this paper we present 3-D Navigation View, a three-dimensional visualization of indoor environment which serves as an intuitive and unified user interface for our developed indoor location tracking system via Virtual Reality Modeling Language (VRML) in web environment. The extracted user's spatial information from indoor location tracking system was further processed to facilitate the location indication in virtual 3-D indoor environment based on his location in physical world. External Authoring Interface (EAI) provided by VRML enables the integration of interactive 3-D graphics into web and direct communication with the encapsulated Java applet to update position and viewpoint of user periodically in 3-D indoor environment. As any web browser with VRML viewer plug-in is able to run the platform independent 3-D Navigation View, specialized and expensive hardware or software can be disregarded.

자율 주행을 위해 주행 지도, 위치 추적 및 목적지까지의 최단 경로 설정 연구가 필요하다. 특히 실내에서는 GPS 신호를 수신 받을 수 없기 때문에 이미지 프로세싱과 같은 방법을 통해 현재 위치를 인식하고 3차원 지도를 생성해야 한다. 본 논문에서는 Depth 카메라인 키넥트를 이용하여 3차원 지도를 생성하고, 일반 카메라로 촬영한 2차원 이미지를 이용하여 3차원 지도에서 현재 위치를 파악하는 방법에 대해 설명한다. 그리고 지도에서 장애물을 확인하고 단순화하는 방법에 대해서도 설명한다.

As human beings spend more time indoors, and with the growing complexity of indoor spaces, more focus is given to indoor spatial applications and services. 3D topological networks are used for various spatial applications that involve navigation indoors such as emergency evacuation, indoor positioning, and visualization. Manually generating indoor network data is impractical and prone to errors, yet current methods in automation need expensive sensors or datasets that are difficult and expensive to obtain and process. In this research, a methodology for semi-automatically generating a 3D indoor topological model based on IndoorGML (Indoor Geographic Markup Language) is proposed. The concept of Shooting Point is defined to accommodate the usage of omnidirectional images in generating IndoorGML data. Omnidirectional images were captured at selected Shooting Points in the building using a fisheye camera lens and rotator and indoor spaces are then identified using image processing implemented in Python. Relative positions of spaces obtained from CAD (Computer-Assisted Drawing) were used to generate 3D node-relation graphs representing adjacency, connectivity, and accessibility in the study area. Subspacing is performed to more accurately depict large indoor spaces and actual pedestrian movement. Since the images provide very realistic visualization, the topological relationships were used to link them to produce an indoor virtual tour.

A variety of methods for indoor positioning systems have been underway to ensure the safety of emergency rescuers who are working in dangerous situations such as fire fighters. However, since most systems display locations of rescue workers in two-dimension (2D)-based maps, it is difficult for a commander located in the outside to recognize locations of rescuers inside the building intuitively. An augmented reality (AR)-based indoor positioning monitoring system can display locations of rescuer inside the building that can be seen by commanders to help intuitive recognition of positioning. To monitor AR-based indoor positioning, it is necessary to have an estimation technique of line of sight vector of observers. In the present study, an estimation technique of a line of sight vector using ultra-wide band tranceiver installed inside the indoor to trace locations is presented.

The Global Positioning System (GPS) is widely used to aid the navigation of aerial vehicles. However, the GPS cannot be used indoors, so alternative navigation methods are needed to be developed for micro aerial vehicles (MAVs) flying in GPS-denied environments. In this paper, a real-time three-dimensional (3-D) indoor navigation system and closed-loop control of a quad-rotor aerial vehicle equipped with an inertial measurement unit (IMU) and a low-cost light detection and ranging (LIDAR) is presented. In order to estimate the pose of the vehicle equipped with the two-dimensional LIDAR, an octree-based grid map and Monte-Carlo Localization (MCL) are adopted. The navigation results using the MCL are then evaluated by making a comparison with a motion capture system. Finally, the results are used for closed-loop control in order to validate its positioning accuracy during procedures for stable hovering and waypoint-following.

This paper presents a simple modeling system that constructs 3D models from an indoor cylindrical environment map using all of the available geometry of the interior structure such as vertical and horizontal lines and parallel and perpendicular planes. The indoor scene abstract model is created through this system and the navigation through the process of 3D reconstruction. This system first automatically detects the vanishing points in a cylindrical environment map from parallel lines and planes, and determines the indoor scene topology previously defined using this information. The determined topology enables he user intervention UI simply construct a 3D model by using the photogrammetry. The modeling system can be ...

Indoor spatial data has great importance as the demand for representing the complex urban environment in the context of providing LBS (Location-based Services) is increasing. IndoorGML (Indoor Geographic Markup Language) has been established as the data standard for spatial data in providing indoor navigation, but its definitions and relationships must be expanded to increase its applications and to successfully delivering information to users. In this study, we propose an approach to integrate IndoorGML with Indoor POI (Points of Interest) data by extending the IndoorGML notion of space and topological relationships. We consider two cases of representing Indoor POI, by 3D geometry and by point primitive representation. Using the concepts of the NRS (node-relation structure) and multi-layered space representation of IndoorGML, we define layers to separate features that represent the spaces and the Indoor POI into separate, but related layers. The proposed methodology was implemented with real datasets to evaluate its effectiveness for performing indoor spatial analysis.

최근 자율 비행에 대한 관심이 증가하면서 다양한 센서를 통한 자기 위치 인식 연구가 진행되고 있다. 특히 GPS와 같은 자기 위치를 확보할 수 없는 실내 환경의 경우, 다른 방법을 통해 자기 위치를 파악해야 한다. 실내 환경에서 자기 위치 파악에는 여러 가지 방법이 있지만 영상을 통한 위치 인식 기술이 각광을 받고 있다. 본 논문에서는 마크를 통한 영상 기반의 위치 인식 연구에 대해 설명하고, 실제 비행체에 적용하여 자율 비행하는 방법에 대해 제안한다. 그리고 마크가 없는 실제 환경에서도 위치를 인식할 수 있도록 실시간 3차원 지도 생성을 통한 위치 인식 방법에 대해서도 논의한다.

도로명주소를 위치를 표시하는 수단으로 확대하여 활용하고자 하는 내용이 담긴 도로명주소법에 대한 전부 개정안이 국회에서 의결되었으며, 개정법에 따라 행정안전부에서는 건물뿐만 아니라 버스정류장이나 택시승강장과 같은 시설물에 주소를 부여하고, 복잡하고 대형화되는 시설물(입체복합공간)에 대해서도 주소를 부여할 계획이다. 여기서 입체주소는 입체복합공간의 내부통로에 실내경로구간을 설정하고, 그 구간을 분할하여 그 간격에 설정된 기초번호를 활용하여 실내경로명과 기초번호로 부여된다. 이렇게 부여된 입체주소는 주소정보기본도에 구축될 예정이다. 입체주소는 입체복합공간(실내공간)을 대상으로 데이터가 구축되고 관리되어야 한다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 국제 표준에 정의된 주소 개념모델을 바탕으로 입체주소의 개체를 정의하고, IndoorGML을 기반으로 입체주소 데이터 모델을 제안하고자 한다. 이를 위하여 입체주소의 개체가 IndoorGML로 표현이 될 수 있도록 IndoorGML의 Core module과 Navigation module로 매핑하는 방식으로 제안하였다. 본 연구는 입체주소 데이터 모델을 설계만 하였다는 한계가 있으나 향후 입체주소 데이터를 구축하는데 기준을 제시하였다는 의의가 있다.
