Method for providing indoor positioning information to a navigation application based on the conversion of the positioning information to a standard format

摘要

The invention describes a method for operating a positioning system (11), comprising the steps of:
- providing a mobile device (20);
- providing an indoor positioning system (11) for determining a position of the mobile device (20) within a predetermined area of a building and/or a non-public area, the position being represented as first data in a first data format and/or in a first coordinate system (11);
- running an outdoor positioning application (23) on the mobile device (20), the outdoor positioning application (23) being able to process second data in a second data format and/or in a second coordinate system (11) and to receive the second data via a predefined interface;
- transforming the first data into the second data; and
- providing the second data at the predefined interface for being processed by the outdoor positioning application (23) to output the determined indoor position using the outdoor positioning application (23).
