Trying to implement wayfinding for Creator Indoor maps. It's working for nearby rooms but not working for the rooms that are far away.

Question

I am following this article https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-maps/how-to-creator-wayfinding

Used the sample drawing package https://github.com/Azure-Samples/am-creator-indoor-data-examples/blob/master/Sample%20-%20Contoso%20Drawing%20Package.zip

Created datasetId, routsetId and get the facilityId

Using this for postman get response but it's respond only nearby rooms not for the rooms that are far away. - https://us.atlas.microsoft.com/wayfinding/path?api-version=2022-09-01-preview&subscription-key={Your-Azure-Maps-Subscription-key}&routesetid={routeset-ID}&facilityid={facility-ID}&fromPoint={lat,lon}&fromLevel={from-level}&toPoint={lat,lon}&toLevel={to-level}&minWidth={minimun-width}

For rooms that are far away.

For nearby rooms its working

Answer 1

Hello @Saurabh Tiwari and thank you for trying the Creator Wayfinding service.

Please change the minimum width parameter from 3 [meters] to 0.8 and try searching again. Office doors are usually 0.9m wide, so it would be expected not to find a path in an office floor-plan for a character 3 meter wide.

Let me know if this solves the problem.

Thanks

David

Hi Saurabh, the issue seems to be that you try to find a route through openings that are at least 3m wide. For typical office spaces where you have to go through standard doors we would recommend a width of <= 0.85.
