SMART UNIVERSITY
The Campus Wayfinding application
The Pilot Road Smart University Guide is using the latest digital mapping and wayfinding technology to transform university facilities into interactive digital space. It helps in improving the visitor experience, staff satisfaction, and optimizing space utilization efficiency and availability. It is an easy-to-use solution for searching, navigating, and working across the campus - from the parking lot to the lecture hall. It also makes it possible to share location information as part of any internal and external communication.
The Pilot Road University Guide makes possible for seamless co-usage of the vast campus real estate. It has been developed together with leading universities to help in daily tasks that both the staff and the students have during a typical day. The solution has been successfully used by Finland’s largest university campus, where it has provided a simple to use space navigator to its students, staff, and corporate users. As a result, the utilization efficiency of the whole campus has increased without lowering the space availability nor experience.
The solution is used by more than 18 000 users today, in just one campus alone.
Pilot Road provides several functionalities on one platform, including interactive 3D maps, wayfinding, indoor positioning, space availability information, and room/space booking solutions.
Pilot Road gives the organization a single, up-to-date data set of the campus and eliminates the need to maintain siloed versions of the same data. Unlike any image-based mapping solutions, Pilot Road maps are directly connected to actual facility CAD drawings for easy updates. Integrate into existing systems. Thanks to the open nature of the platform, no vendor lock exists as all data is available through open APIs.
It gives students, staff, and visitors a seamless indoor-outdoor wayfinding experience before and during their campus visit. Embed maps as part of the campus website, use the Kiosk app in interactive displays, and QR-code/SMS based links for accessing the maps on mobile.
