[OSM-dev] [GSOC] - Extend GraphHopper to support Multi-Floor Indoor Navigation

[Muhammad Mahmoud ElTaweel]

My name is Muhammad ElTaweel, i'm a final-year undergraduate Computer
Engineering student at Faculty of Engineering, Mansoura University, Egypt.

i'm working in Indoor Navigation & Positioning [ WiFi / Dead-Reckoning ]
System. and i'm already using the Awesome GraphHopper as an offline routing
engine on the Android App, alongside with Mapsforge / Nutiteq different
MapViews implementations.

While outdoor mapping & navigation is mature now, The demand for indoor
navigation is booming, because people spend most of their time indoors.
GraphHopper is able to work with indoor data as it does with the outdoor,
but for a single floor. There is no support for Multi-Floor Indoor
Navigation!  So i proposed to extend GraphHopper to support Multi-Floor
Indoor Navigation.

I introduced myself to Peter "GraphHopper Author" few days ago and he is
interested in the idea. then i started working on the proposal  and just
finished. The proposal is on google melange now and i hope to get feedback
and reviews from the mentors.  sorry for being late to introduce myself
here.

Regards,
Muhammad.
