There is a lot of outside navigation systems apps like google map are available but none of them support Indoor navigation inside a building, malls, houses, airports. An indoor navigation app would certainly benefit users who are unfamiliar with a place like it's help's a passenger to navigate to their boarding pass in airports. The obvious use of indoor navigation in malls is to get turn-by-turn directions to a particular store. It also helps in hospitals, if a person has an emergency then indoor navigation helps him/her to get a certain direction to a particular ward. Indoor navigation could also benefit local users who have previously visited a location but are still unaware of the whereabouts of some of the desired locations. These include supermarkets, libraries and shopping malls, etc.
In the RSSI model, we have a problem that it cannot give altitude to phones who don't have pressure sensors. In indoor navigation, we can use Beacons, AR, wifi positioning system but beacons are very costly ( around 10000 dollars) so we use a wifi positioning system but in wifi positioning system its range is low ( around 6 to 10 m) .
