Abstract :
“INDOOR” is a German research project for providing a combined outdoor/indoor navigation capability for location based services of security-sensitive applications (SAR) as well as for important professional logistic or tracking applications, e.g. asset/child tracking. The project consortium is built of nine partners from industry, research institutes and universities with IFEN GmbH being the coordinator of the project. The work is funded by the German Aerospace Center DLR to support future applications for outdoor/indoor scenarios with a focus on the combination of GPS and Galileo, accompanied by assisted information.
