These buildings are almost like a small city with their tens of floors, hundreds of corridors and rooms and passages. Sometimes people lost their way in these huge buildings. Due to the size and complexity of these buildings, people need guidance to find their way to the destination in these buildings. In this study, a mobile application has been developed to visualize a pedestrian's indoor location as 3D in his/her smartphone. This mobile application has the characteristics of a prototype for indoor navigation systems. While the pedestrian is walking on his/her way, the smartphone will guide the pedestrian with the photos of indoor environment on the route, arrow marks and text information. As a future plan, an RFID (Radio-Frequency Identification) technology can be integrated to the system to detect the location of the pedestrian during his/her tour in the building. By this way, the system will navigate the users more accurately as a real-time navigation system.
