Tours and Maps Operations as Movement Mechanism in Indoor Wayfinding

This paper addresses the issue of wayfinding and human movement in a complex building. It focuses on the operations people perform to enable themselves to move from one place to another during the process of searching for a destination in a building. The wayfinding operations build upon the conc...
