Indoor navigation may be utilized in combination with predetermined location goals to guide consumers to places they do or might want to visit in a retail establishment or other space. The user may be provided with assistance in locating items on a predetermined list, such as by checking map information on the user's device and by interacting with one or more location detection devices. Statistics related to the user's shopping experience may also be provided to the user. The user can optionally allow the store to review the list, statistics, or other information so the store can analyze the presentation, how the items were found, and even what the user actually purchased. |
