In order to overcome the problem that outdoor and indoor spatial information service are separately utilized, an integration service system of spatial information that is linked from outdoor to indoor has been implemented. As a result of the study, "0001.xml" corresponding to the file index key value, which is the service connection information in the building information of the destination, was extracted from the prototype verification of the system, the search word of 'Kim AB' was transmitted to the indoor map server and converted from the outdoor map service to the indoor map service through confirmation of the navigation service connected information, using service linkage information and search words of the indoor map service was confirmed that the route was displayed from the entrance of the building to the destination in the building through the linkage search DB (Database) table and the search query. Therefore, through this study was examined the possibility of linking indoor and outdoor DB through vector spatial information integration service system. The indoor map and the map engine were implemented based on the same vector map format as the outdoor map engine, it was confirmed that the connectivity of the map engine can be applied.

So many location based service systems, including automobile navigation system logistic management, taxi fleet management, and so on, are being used everywhere. However, these are all outdoors. This paper provides a stepping stone for commercial indoor location based services by developing an integrated system of our indoor positioning and map viewer modules. For the indoor positioning, we propose WLAN (Wireless Local Area Network) based EKF (Extended Kalman Filter) which estimates user's current location and tracts user's trace in the sequence of time. Our map viewer renders a map recorded in an Autocad DXF file and provides functions of map manipulation such as zoom-in, zoom-out, and move. We integrate our indoor positioning and map viewer modules and discuss the experimental results of the integrated system.

Map rendering, positioning, database managements are key elements of location based services. Google map and GPS (Global Positioning System) have become a very popular solution for map rendering and positioning, respectively. They are very effective and yet free of charge. However, they cannot be used for an indoor location based service system. We cannot render a building drawing with Google map, we cannot determine a moving object's position when it is indoor. This paper introduces our web services of rendering drawings, indoor positioning, and multimedia contents up-loading and playing so that any programmers can use them in developing indoor location based service systems. In order to experimentally show the efficiency of our web services, we have built a location based contents displaying system for museum visitors with them.

Rendering maps is an essential feature of the user interface component of a location based service (LBS) system. However, a developer may not too much worry about implementing the rendering maps part of his or her system because there are quite a few publicly available libraries that provide all kinds of functions of manipulating maps. Google Maps, Yahoo Map, Naver Map, Daum Map, and so on are example sites that provide those libraries. Rendering drawings is to indoor LBS as rendering maps is to LBS. However, there is no such thing as Google Maps that provides libraries for rendering drawings. This paper introduces a few web services and a library that is useful in developing user interfaces of indoor LBS systems.

An indoor location-based service cannot be realized unless the indoor positioning problem is solved. However, the cost-effective indoor positioning systems are suffering from their inaccurateness. This paper proposes a map information-based correction method for the indoor positioning systems. Using our Kalman filter with map information-based appropriate parameter values, our method estimates the track of the moving object, then it performs the Frechet Distance-based map matching on the obtained track. After that it applies our real time correction method. In order to verify efficiency of our method, we also provide our test results.

Home service robot must recognize and build map for indoor and components of the house such as furniture and chair etc. The previous researcher has developed a indoor map building system by using CCD camera and ultra sonic sensor. %no stems have some problem in such a way that (1) a distun resolution can be changed according to the number of pixel when we use a CCD camera system, (2) a measured distance can be decreased when it transmitted to the rubber because of being absorbed the sound energy. This paper represents an intelligent sensor controller of module has been developed by using optic PSD(Position Sensitive Detector) sensor any at a low price. To deduce the switching noise from beam power module and diffused reflection noise, we proposed a heuristic soft filter. The performance of the developed system was compared with ultra sonic sensor system by detecting the indoor wall environment. Some experiments were illustrated for the validity of the developed system.

Recently, users who are interested in the service at indoor spaces is increasing. An indoor positioning system can minimize a range of positioning error using a variety of wireless communication infrastructure. Also, the system improves an indoor positioning accuracy by combining a mobile communication network. However, flexible positioning technologies regardless of an environment are insufficient. Therefore, this is time for a systematic study on an indoor positioning system business model. This paper classify differences between an indoor positioning system technology and outdoor positioning system technology. And we research a construction and application of the indoor positioning system that is adapted a wireless communication system (Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, RFID, UWE, Fingerprint, etc.) in domestic and foreign. We present a successful model of indoor positioning system and the development for future systems.

With the advent of new technologies such as HSDPA, WiBro(Wireless Broadband) and personal devices, we can access various contents and services anytime and anywhere. A location based service(LBS) is essential for providing personalized services with individual location information in ubiquitous computing environment. In this paper, we propose mapping algorithm for error compensation of indoor localization system. Also we explain filter and indoor localization system. we have developed mapping algorithms composed of a map recognition method and a position compensation method. The map recognition method achieves physical space recognition and map element relation extraction. We improved the accuracy of position searching. In addition, we reduced position errors using a dynamic scale factor.

This paper introduces the development of a range sensor based integrated navigation system for a multi-functional indoor service robot, called PSR (Public Service Robot System). The proposed navigation system includes hardware integration for sensors and actuators, the development of crucial navigation algorithms like mapping, localization, and path planning, and planning scheme such as error/fault handling. Major advantages of the proposed system are as follows: 1) A range sensor based generalized navigation system. 2) No need for the modification of environments. 3) Intelligent navigation-related components. 4) Framework supporting the selection of multiple behaviors and error/fault handling schemes. Experimental results are presented in order to show the feasibility of the proposed navigation system. The result of this research has been successfully applied to our three service robots in a variety of task domains including a delivery, a patrol, a guide, and a floor cleaning task.

LBS (Location Based Service) cannot be realized unless we can obtain the user's current location. Therefore, in order to realize indoor LBS, many researchers have been working on WLAN (Wireless Local Area Network) based indoor positioning and tracking. Meanwhile, Kalman filter has been widely used in the field of GPS based outdoor user tracking. The main purpose of this paper is proposing an extended Kalman filter method for indoor tracking. Our experimental results show that Kalman filter can be used to improve the accuracy of the measured tracks and the track can be further improved by making use of the map information.
