Indoor Direction Service

How to calculate and display the shortest route between 2 locations

Woosmap Indoor Js API provides you tools to create an optimized navigation experience:

Indoor turn-by-turn navigation with Points of Interest
Routing based on mobility profiles (Handicapped access, travelling with a buggy, walking, etc.)
Multilingual

Indoor direction service

Use the IndoorService class to calculate the shortest route between 2 locations (indoorService.directions()) and display the route on the map thanks to the setDirection() method of the IndoorRenderer.

8 parameters are available to provide a suitable navigation experience to your user:

Field	Type	Mandatory	Default	Description
venueId	String	X		Id of the Venue
origin	LatLng	X		Origin coordinate
originLevel	Integer	X		Origin floor level
destination	LatLng	X		Destination coordinate
destinationLevel	Integer	X		Destination floor level
language	String		en	Language for instructions
unit	String		metric	Distance value unit
mode	String		null	Routing profile for using suitable path only
avoid	String		null	Exclude one/multiple zone from the walkbale network of the venue, expected zone format `level;lat,lng;lat,lng; ... ;lat,lng`

Here a code sample following by a working sample of the Parisian railway station - Gare du Nord:

        const indoorService = new window.woosmap.map.IndoorService();

indoorService.directions(
  {
        venueId: indoorRenderer.getVenue().venue_id,
        origin: new woosmap.map.LatLng(x.latlng),
        originLevel: 0,
        destination: new woosmap.map.LatLng(y.latlng),
        destinationLevel: 0,
        language: "en",
        units: "metric",
        mode: "wheelchair"
      },
      (result) => {
        indoorRenderer.setDirections(result);
      }
);
