Eftersom människor tillbringar större delen av sin dagliga tid inomhus idag, ökar intresset och användningen av system för inomhusmiljöer, så kallade inomhuspositioneringssystem (IPS). De senaste åren har det därför tillkommit nya dataformat för inomhuskartläggning och kommersiella IPS och har ännu inte studerats ingående. Därför ger rapporten en översikt över huvuddelarna i IPS: dataformat för inAs people spend most of their daily time indoor today, the interest and usage of systems for indoor environments, called indoor positioning systems (IPSs), are increasing.
