| Abstrak/Abstract |
In the world today, various ways of positioning alongside location awareness have been developed. They play an important role towards improving the performance of localization system based technologies for indoor and outdoor conditions, which enables the user to clarify a problem, to develop a system that supports various users’ needs and assist in their requirements. The outdoor positioning provides an accurate estimation of a location through the use of the global positioning system. However, it cannot be used indoors due to the inherent weakness in the signal. Therefore, the indoor positioning systems require an alternative solution to improve its performance. The integration of indoor and outdoor positioning systems seamlessly is significant towards bridging different systems without obstacle, and helps to support the user with ease. This paper examines previous literature works with regards to different locations and positioning that have enabled integration of indoor and outdoor environments seamlessly. The paper will seek to analyze the historical works in terms of their respective research methods, results and proposals. The associated challenges for the system are included in this paper as well, as a means to enable continuous improvement of the system in a real environment. Through the use of sensor technologies, the system can be utilized to improve daily activities by improving the complexity of the positioning technology. |
