[OSM-talk-be] Ghent University helps you in finding your way indoors!

[Nico Van de Weghe]

Dear Ruben,

I thought that the community could be interested in the concept of SoleWay and therefore sent it. Seems that something went wrong with the sending and that your received it several times. Sorry for this.
Anyway, I was not aware that the list is so narrow, and thought that OpenStreetMappers could be interested to discuss about SoleWay and to give feed-back about this 0D-approach. If you would like to get more info about the idea behind is (and not just promotalk), please let me know. I am glad to go in more detail why I am convinced that this approach has advantages with respect to the traditional indoor mapping. If no interest, of course no problem, and sorry for the inconvenience and the misunderstanding.

Best wishes, Nico.

Dear Nico

I received your email three times: twice in my talk-be inbox and once in my generic inbox, sent to me outside the list.

It seems that you have consulted the list of subscribers to this mailing list and sent them private e-mails. That is inappropriate. I consider this spam and will most certainly not be interacting with the links you send.

Regards
Ruben

Dear colleague,
Are you tired of explaining the route to your office, a meeting room, a lecture room ...? Or did you ever get lost in a building? Many have tried to solve the problem of indoor navigation with state-of-the-art technologies. All of them have failed. Let's create a community that's smarter than that. Together, we can put the world on the indoor map.
To achieve that goal, we need your help. Explore the SoleWay website<https://soleway.ugent.be/>, explore the existing routes, and enter your routes in order to help others to find their way around! Why not start with your own office, and then just refer to that route when visitors ask how they can find you (see, for example, "office location" in my signature). Why not ask your colleagues to create their routes, or just create a route somewhere on this planet? The crowd will appreciate your contribution!
The SoleWay team (Explore the world - start indoors!)
*Feed-back can be given via soleway.support at lists.ugent.be<mailto:soleway.support at lists.ugent.be><mailto:soleway.support at lists.ugent.be> or by replying to this e-mail.
