Abstract
The context sensitive indoor navigation system (CoINS) implements an architecture to develop context-aware indoor user guidance services and applications. This paper presents a detailed discussion on algorithms and architectural issues in building an indoor guidance system. We first start with the world model and required mapping to 2D for the process of path calculation and simplification. We also compare several algorithm optimizations applied in this particular context. The system provides the infrastructure to support different techniques of presenting the path and supporting user orientation to reach a certain destination in indoor premises
