This sounds exactly like Mapquest but indoors.
Instead of streets, you have corridors. Instead of destinations like Starbucks, you'll have stuff more like "Joe's Office." I have written something like Mapquest before. It used the *A star*pathfinding algorithm. Contrary to intuition, the streets were nodes on the graph while the places were edges. Thanks.
