Re: [MCN-L] Data-driven museum maps?
I do a bit of work on OSM in New Zealand but haven't yet done anything for indoors. I'm not sure OSM is really the right tool for the job although there have been several attempts - http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Indoor_Mapping#Projects Since I last checked the IndoorGML spec has been published which looks interesting - http://indoorgml.net. In terms of delivery of maps MapBox seem to be the only ones doing interesting open source stuff and storage in MBTiles seems like the way to go. I would be interested to see where you get with your project. Feel free to ping me offline.

Re: [MCN-L] Data-driven museum maps?
Hey Douglas, We developed an algorithm in the MediaLab for routing through multiple waypoints, finding the ideal path while respecting a user's preference for avoiding stairs, dark rooms, etc. It's not the total wayfinding solution, but can be a useful component. Personally I've always wanted to investigate openStreetMaps for indoors. code on github is here: https://github.com/metmuseum-medialab/pathfinder But happy to go over the details of it if you find it useful.

Re: [MCN-L] Data-driven museum maps?
Hi Douglas, We explored this at the Art Institute in 2009 and found the issue with mapping overlays on Google or Open Street Map is that levels in buildings were yet routable. At the time we worked with Maps Alive (http://www.mapsalive.com/) (and a the design firm Slate Roof Studio) who have done a lot of campus mapping. The Art Institute's Pathfinder was data driven in that it refreshed to the collection management system data nightly to account for art movement, designation of featured objects and object metadata -- therefore always leading a visitor to a gallery where that artwork actually existed with the proper information. Then the Maps Alive software would construct a series of legs from the start point to the destination, accounting for preferences such as an accessible path, etc. 2009 was a long time ago -- and the institution since moved on to Meridian a few years ago for its route construction (and perhaps on to something else that I'm not aware of since my time!) Nevertheless, George at Maps Alive is full of ideas and aways happy to share -- a conversation with him may be one data point from a programmer/business owner in the institution mapping field.
