Key Features of Indoor Navigation SDK
-
Defining the location
The exact location is defined using the external radio frequency infrastructure, human motion models, and floor plans. Apart from beacons, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth® Low Energy, the system uses the internal sensors of smartphones (barometer, accelerometer, etc.). It is also possible to use AR.
-
Real time navigation on the smartphone
A route map with waypoints can be zoomed in and out; you can create an indoor map that includes all the buildings and floors of the venue. Step-by-step instructions, which are automatically displayed and updated depending on the user's position, allow you to easily navigate and move within the building.
-
Push Notifications
With Navigine SDK, you can send push and local notifications that reach users exactly when and where they matter. Using precise indoor positioning, you deliver targeted messages, offers, or alerts the moment someone is near a specific store, product display, or point of interest, helping you engage visitors in real time and boost on‑site conversions.
-
Building a route to any point on the maps
Our SDK allows you to build routes from any starting point to any destination using our powerful route library. The indoor positioning SDK works on both iOS and Android, delivering accurate navigation inside and outside buildings. By using vector maps instead of raster images, you’ll speed up loading times and enable offline, autonomous geolocation, so your users can keep navigating even without a stable internet connection.

F.A.Q
An indoor map is a digital representation of an interior space (i.e., building, airport, mall or hospital).It has structural layouts, room names, POIs and navigational paths. Indoor map is used for wayfinding, analytics or asset tracking within enclosed environments.
A location SDK is a development toolkit in order for apps to access, interpret and act on location data. SDK supports real-time positioning, indoor navigation, geofencing and location-based notifications using GPS, BLE or Wi-Fi.
Indoor mapping takes several steps of implementation:
● gathering architectural or floor plan data
● transforming it into a digital map format (SVG, GeoJSON)
● defining points of interest
● integrating positioning technologies: BLE beacons, Wi-Fi or UWB.
● creating interactive and navigable indoor maps with indoor mapping software of SDKs.
Indoor maps are stored in digital formats (GeoJSON, SVG, DXF) or proprietary formats of certain mapping platforms. These formats support layering, object tagging and coordinate referencing for precise navigation and spatial analysis.
Navigine SDK is available for Android, iOS, and Web. Cross-platform integration is also possible via REST API.
Integration usually takes from a few hours to a couple of days depending on the app complexity. Navigine provides comprehensive documentation, code samples, and developer support.
Yes, for accurate positioning, you’ll need to upload a floor plan and perform signal calibration (BLE/Wi-Fi) using Navigine’s tools.
