12:20 - 12:50 - Next generation of airport interactive maps, wayfinding and indoor location
Synopsis: Every year billions of travellers are faced with the same daunting obstacles of trying to navigate through an airport in search of a specific place, product or brand.

See a revolutionary demonstration of how interactive indoor mapping technology, combined with wayfinding and detailed search options, can create value for passengers while driving airport commerce.
