Assessment Of Location Of Pedestrian Outdoor Route Navigation Using Shortest Path Algorithm By Developing 3d Map: The Case Of Debre Birhan University Compound

Abstract

Navigation Is Determining One??S Position, Planning Of A Route From Initial Position To A Destination Following The Route. Travelling In A New Environment Is A Great Challenge Of Human Being To Arrive The Target Destination Points. Specially, Finding The Way Inside University Campus Which Have Many Buildings With A Number Of Connections Of Routes Are Being More A Challenge To Unfamiliar Person For The Campus Environment. Most Of These Routes Are Pedestrian Based. Therefore, In This Thesis Pedestrian Outdoor Route Navigation With Shortest Path Were Addressed And 3d Models Of The Campus Were Developed, Such As3d Route Model, 3d Route Network Model, And 3d Building Models. The 3d Models Were Developed Using ArcGIS Desktop 10.7.1 And Super Map I desktop 10i And Shortest Path Were Determined By Using Dijkastra??S Spa. To Implement This Spa And Determine The Most Best Route Between The Origin And Destination Of Pedestrian, Directed And Weighted Graph Were Developed. So This Thesis Is Used To Avoid Confusing Of The Locations Of The Required Destination Point With A Shortest Pedestrian Route Within Dbu Campus For Unfamiliar People.
