Plan a DigiMaps wayfinding pilot for one building.

The pilot planner turns eight answers about your building into a draft pilot scope: what we would set up, what you provide, the phases, and the questions still open. It works in your browser, and nothing is sent until you choose to send it.

Site plan of Wayvale General Hospital, a fictional demo venue. Block A, Outpatients, is hatched as the pilot building, with two kiosks and two signage screens. Blocks B, Wards, and C, Diagnostics, are dashed and marked for later. An amber route runs from the car park to the main entrance of Block A.

Wayvale General Hospital is a fictional demo venue.

Answer what you know. The sheet fills in as you go.

Skip anything you are not sure of: it turns into an open question on the sheet. When the sheet looks right, send it with a pilot request or print it for your next internal meeting.

01What kind of building is it?
02How many buildings?

A pilot usually covers one building. The rest can follow in the same Studio.

03Size of the pilot building

A rough area across all floors is enough. Studio holds up to 50 floors per building.

04Screens in the pilot

Enter 0 if you have none. Phones need no app either way.

05Which languages do visitors need?
06Where must it run?
07What floor plans do you have?

See how each floor-plan format comes in before you choose.

08Anything else on your list? optional

This sheet fills itself in as you answer when JavaScript is on. Without it, use the questions as a checklist and put your answers in the request form below.

AWhat we would set up

  1. A Studio workspace with the industry pack for your kind of building: its categories, search synonyms, kiosk home tiles and privacy defaults.
  2. Every floor brought in from the floor plans you have. Rooms, doors, lifts, stairs and the walking routes between them, with six routing profiles and a strict step-free route.
  3. Kiosks registered in Studio and placed on the plan facing the right way, each with its own “You are here” point, QR hand-off to phones and a 60-second reset for the next visitor.
  4. Signage screens showing the DigiMaps signage page or directory board, on any player that opens a web page, with live notices included.
  5. The languages your visitors need, up to 24 per venue, with right-to-left layout for Arabic.
  6. Our cloud or your own server. We help you decide before the scope is fixed.
  7. Live operations with your team: closures that re-route visitors within seconds, scheduled notices, and emergency mode on every screen.
  8. Anonymous statistics from the first day: what visitors search for, where they go and what they cannot find.
  9. Training for your operators and administrators, with the operator guides and admin manuals.

BWhat you provide

  1. Floor plans for each floor in the format you have. DXF works best; PDFs and images are fine.
  2. Names of the places visitors look for, with opening hours where they apply.
  3. Where each kiosk stands and which way it faces, and what it runs: an Android signage board (Android 9 or later, 2 GB of memory), a Windows kiosk PC or ChromeOS, with Chromium or WebView 111 or newer and WebGL 2.
  4. The make and model of each signage player, and whether it can open a web page or read an RSS feed.
  5. Your approved exit information, if emergency mode should show visitors the way out.
  6. A named person for each job: editing the map, posting notices, and approving releases.

CPhases and typical steps

  1. 1Plans inWe receive your plans, set the scale, bring in each floor, and agree with you what the map must show.
  2. 2Map and contentRooms, names, hours, routes and your brand theme, built in Studio. Your team reviews the draft.
  3. 3ScreensKiosks pointed at DigiMaps, registered with their own device tokens and placed on the plan. Signage players set to open the DigiMaps signage page or directory board.
  4. 4Check and publishPre-publish checks, review and approval, then the first release. We walk the main routes from each kiosk with your team.
  5. 5Run the pilotYour team posts closures and notices and watches the statistics. The pilot closes with a review of what a full rollout would take.

How long each phase takes depends on your plans, your screens and how quickly approvals come back. We agree the timeline with you.

DOpen questions

  1. What kind of building is it? The answer picks the industry pack.
  2. How many floors does the pilot building have?
  3. What floor plans do you have: DXF, DWG, PDF, images, or none?
  4. How many kiosks, and are they already installed?
  5. Which languages do your visitors need?
  6. Can visitor data leave the site, and is there internet at the kiosks? The answers decide between our cloud and your own server.
  7. What date are you working to: a go-live, a tender deadline or a budget cycle?

Draft from the DigiMaps pilot planner. It is not a quote or a contract: scope, price and timeline are agreed with you in writing.

What a standard pilot leaves out.

A pilot proves DigiMaps on one building, with your screens and your staff. These six items sit outside it. Each one has its own route, set out next to it.

Not in a standard pilot What happens instead
A moving blue dot on phones Scoped as its own commissioned pilot: we survey the venue and report the accuracy measured on site. How indoor positioning works in DigiMaps
A mobile app Not needed. Phones open the map in the browser from the kiosk’s QR code or a link.
Every building on the site Agreed after the review at the end of the pilot. New buildings join the same Studio.
Certificates for your tender file DigiMaps holds no security or accessibility certifications yet. The trust page lists the evidence we can show instead. What we can show your IT and procurement teams
Kiosk hardware Quoted separately. DigiMaps runs on Android signage boards, Windows kiosk PCs and ChromeOS devices you may already own.
A promised end date on this page We agree the timeline with you once we have seen your plans and your list of screens.

Questions about pilots

A pilot is one of three ways to buy. The others are set out on how DigiMaps is priced. For anything else, contact the DigiMaps team.

What is a DigiMaps pilot?

A pilot is DigiMaps running on one site, usually one building, with a fixed scope agreed before work starts. We map the building, set up the agreed kiosks and screens and train your team. The pilot ends with a review of what a full rollout would involve.

How long does a pilot take?

It depends on the state of your floor plans, the number of floors and screens, and how quickly the map and translations are approved on your side. We agree the timeline with you once we have seen your plans, rather than quote a figure here.

Do we need beacons or new hardware for a pilot?

No beacons. Each kiosk has a fixed “You are here” point, so routes start where the visitor stands and move to their phone by QR code. Kiosks can be Android signage boards (Android 9 or later with 2 GB of memory), Windows kiosk PCs or ChromeOS devices, with Chromium or WebView 111 or newer.

Can the pilot run on our own server?

Yes. DigiMaps Server runs on one machine on your network, on Ubuntu or on Windows through WSL2, including sites with no internet connection. Choose your own server in the planner and the scope lists what you would need to provide.

Which floor plans should we send?

DXF from AutoCAD works best: it comes in directly, with no AI involved. DWG is converted, IFC is on request, and PDFs or images are traced with AI assistance for your team to review room by room. Only the first page of a PDF is read, so send one floor per file.

What happens to the answers I enter?

They stay in your browser while you use the planner. The send button copies the scope into the request form on this page, and nothing reaches us until you submit that form.

Book a 30-minute walkthrough. We go through your scope sheet, show DigiMaps on a demo venue, and tell you plainly what a pilot on your site would involve.
