Abstract

This work tested a solution for outdoor and indoor positioning. In order to find a suitable solution for "geo-applications" like in caves and mines, we tested the GPS and Open Street Map cartography for outdoor and Magnetic Field positioning and Indoor Atlas technology for indoor in the Urbino University residences. The results of this work can be already used for university students and hosts in Urbino; moreover, these could be also easily applied to geotouristic sites by means of the development of an app for Android smartphones.
