An indoor mapping and navigation system allows users to pinpoint their exact location and locate the fastest route to their target store or nearby amenities such as restrooms or diaper changing stations. Indoor localization is useful for visually impaired people and robot navigation systems in confined spaces. They use the location information to find out where they are and how to navigate a building. A fire or other emergency event is another crucial circumstance for indoor localization.

Wireless wave, unlike light, passes through doors and walls and gives ubiquitous coverage throughout a building. Indoor localization based on wireless signals receive signal properties to calculate the distance between known points and determine the current point's position. Majority of current indoor localization research relies on wireless technology.

The system is easy to set up and the presence of microwaves does not interfere with human activities in the building. Wireless chips are substantially less expensive than cameras. Vision-based indoor localization consumes less power and computational resources. Indoor communications are becoming increasingly important to public safety agencies, business wireless service providers, and wireless users.

For public safety, consistent coverage across a vast jurisdiction, including coverage on-street, in-building, and in-tunnel, is often required. In such cases, a properly built, dedicated mission-critical communications system with enough transmit sites to deliver the level of signal is required for dependable coverage anywhere within the jurisdiction, whether on-street or indoors.  

For in-building localization of first responders as well as other individuals or objects in the operational area, several methods have been proposed. They are based on the use of sensors, RF signatures in a building, GPS signal amplification, and other factors. The market benefits from rising concerns about public safety. Increased building and infrastructure activity, and increased spending on indoor security drives the demand for indoor wireless coverage & objects localization.

Indoor wireless coverage and objects localization is used in indoor navigation for humans or robots, personnel, asset tracking, guiding blind people, manufacturing automation, workplace safety, identifying patients in a hospital, and location-based advertising. Additionally, such services are becoming essential in various fields such as mobile commerce, vehicle tracking, discovering the nearest shops or restaurants, and social networking sites. Rising applications around various industries is expected to drive the market.
