IndoorAtlas enables accurate cross-platform Indoor Positioning of smartphones by fusing all available information sources, including:
• Geomagnetic fingerprint maps
• Pedestrian Dead Reckoning with gyroscope and accelerometer (IMU sensors)
• Wi-Fi signals
• Wi-Fi RTT/FTM signals
• Bluetooth beacons
• Barometric height information
• Visual-inertial information from AR core
IndoorAtlas works with any indoor maps, including Google Maps.
MapCreator 2 provides an efficient way to enable geomagnetic-fused indoor positioning in your chosen location/venue. This app records sensor data (geomagnetic landscape, WiFi, BLE and other sensory data) inside a building and uploads it to IndoorAtlas’ cloud platform
The steps of successfully deploying IndoorAtlas technology are:
1. Setup: Signing up and import floor plan images into https://app.indooratlas.com
2. Map: Mapping and optional beacon setup
3. Build: Integrating the SDK into your indoor-location-aware application
MapCreator 2 provides the following benefits:
• Quick fingerprinting experience for enhanced productivity and efficiency
• Quick and simple position testing (shows blue dot on the floor plan)
• Automatic mapping quality analysis for quality control in MapCreator and in https://app.indooratlas.com
• Mapping with Android enables positioning service also for iOS
• Allows free walk and stops during data collection
Following the successful mapping of your location/venue, IndoorAtlas’ positioning service will be available for your app on both Android and iOS smartphones. Once mapping is complete, you can download the IndoorAtlas SDK for free and start building location aware apps for Android and iOS.

Device compatibility:
• Fingerprinting requires WiFi, magnetometer (compass), accelerometer and gyroscope (hardware sensor, not virtual gyroscope) sensors
• Positioning works with any Android 5 or later.
