InMaps Framework is a comprehensive solution for indoor mapping and
location-based services. It consists of three layers: 2D Layer, 3D Layer and Service
Layer. (See Fig. 1).
The 2D Layer provides a high-quality and interactive map of indoor spaces,
such as malls, airports, museums, etc. Th map can be customized with
different styles, themes and features to suit different use cases and prefer-
ences. The 2D Layer also supports offline mode, zooming, panning, rotation
and other gestures.
The 3D Layer enables indoor navigation and wayfinding for users and
visitors. It uses a combination of sensors, beacons, and algorithms to
determine the user's position and orientation in the indoor environment. The
3D Layer also offers turn-by-turn directions, voice guidance, landmarks,
points of interest and other information to help users find their destinations.
The Service Layer enhances the indoor experience with various value-added
services, such as indoor location, heatmap, real-time event map and external
API. The indoor location service allows users to share their location with
others, find nearby friends or colleagues, or request assistance. The heatmap
service shows the distribution of foot traffic and occupancy in different areas
of the indoor space. The real-time event map service displays the status and
updates of events happening in the indoor space, such as concerts,
exhibitions, promotions, etc. The external API service allows third-party
developers to integrate InMaps Framework with their own applications or
platforms.

3.2 Design and implementation InMaps Framework

Designing a 2D,3D map layer requires careful consideration of the purpose and extent
of the map.
To begin with, it is important to lock the movement limit for the map, making it
easier to decide what data and information to include in the map frame and how to
display them. The next step is to select a suitable Coordinate System, which will
greatly affect the appearance of your layers and the accuracy when rendering external
and internal data. After choosing the coordinate system, it is important to determine
the scale of the map that will be easily accessible to the user, depending on the size of
the map area and the level of detail required. In order to make it easy for the user to
recall and distinguish between different types of geographical features such as
building areas or separate internal rooms, markers, points, layers, and colors should
be defined after that . And then adding stickers and captions will be a crucial part of
helping users understand what they are viewing.
Implementing a 2D map involves several key steps. Apparently, it is necessary to
choose a suitable programming language and framework with user-friendly functions
for transforming, rendering, and displaying Geographic Information System (GIS)
data. This choice can greatly impact the ease and efficiency of the implementation
process.
