Bring the blue dot indoors

ArcGIS IPS is an indoor positioning system that allows you to locate yourself and others inside a building in real time. Similar to GPS, it puts a blue dot on indoor maps and uses location services to help you navigate to any point of interest or destination. Real-time indoor navigation, location sharing, and location tracking empower customers, visitors, and contractors. Indoor data collection provides a smooth workflow for mobile workers and analytics can help your organization increase efficiency and improve customer service.

What indoor positioning can do for you

Boost indoor location awareness

Use ArcGIS IPS to allow employees, contractors, and visitors to better orient themselves inside their facilities and navigate to people, assets, and places in real time. Empower mobile workers with tools to continue doing their job effectively as they switch from the field to an indoor environment.

The blue dot transitions seamlessly on the map as the user enters or exits the building or switches between floor levels.

Streamline indoor operations

Indoor operations such as maintenance work require excellent coordination and workforce management. Enable indoor location sharing and tracking for your employees and mobile workers to facilitate collaboration and monitor operations with complete transparency and visibility. Effectively coordinate and dispatch the right resources to do the right job at the right place inside the building.

ArcGIS IPS in the Esri BeLux environment

You can unlock ArcGIS IPS in ArcGIS Indoors, an indoor mapping system for smart building management; use it in ArcGIS Field Maps, the all-in-one app to streamline critical field workflows; or access it via ArcGIS Maps SDKs for native apps to power your cutting-edge, custom-built indoor positioning app.

ArcGIS IPS comes with ArcGIS IPS Setup, a mobile app that allows you to collect radio signals from Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) beacons or Wi-Fi signals inside your buildings to enable the indoor positioning system. It can make use of an existing or new beacon or Wi-Fi infrastructure and is vendor agnostic. ArcGIS IPS geoprocessing tools are also included to set up and author your indoor positioning environment in ArcGIS Pro.
