Indoors Navigation Connects Digital Building Twins With Real People

Solving The Indoor Navigation Problem

Dubai officially launched its Digital Twin platform in July 2026. This platform acts as an accurate virtual copy of the emirate. It contains detailed data on infrastructure, landmarks, and residential units. The system currently includes 3D models of over 195,000 buildings. This digital twin helps city planners model rainfall and urban changes. However, this impressive digital transformation has a notable blind spot. Standard GPS signals do not pass through thick concrete walls reliably. Satellite navigation loses its accuracy completely inside large, enclosed structures.

Creating A Unified Information Environment

Russian developer Indoors Navigation stepped in to solve this exact problem. The company creates geographic information systems based on digital twins. Their Indoors Navigation Platform operates effectively both outdoors and indoors. The platform allows users to create custom maps of entire buildings. The system builds routes and tracks the movement of physical assets. It helps patients find hospital offices and passengers locate airport gates. It provides tools for flow management and electronic dispatch services. The platform transforms an abstract digital model into a highly practical tool.

Certified Global Technology

The platform uses Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, UWB, and RFID positioning standards simultaneously. Customers do not need to replace their existing hardware equipment entirely. The technology works seamlessly with what is already installed in the building. Positioning accuracy using Wi-Fi RTT reaches an impressive 30 centimetres. Indoors Navigation products received the official Made in Russia certificate recently. This certification confirms the solution meets high international quality standards. The company plans to showcase its technology at GITEX Global in Dubai. They are also planning projects at Jakarta airport and in Ecuador.
