Wayfinding

Overview

OSIS Way-finding allows for the definition of way-points and routes on a floor plan to help users navigate a floor space. To set up these points and routes we use the Way-finding tool in the OSIS Administrator interface.

Creating Way-points

1. Double-click on the floor plan to add a way-point
2. Name your point and set some point details
   • It is recommended to start by identifying your primary entry point (usually your elevator lobby area)
3. Double click to add and name additional points.
   • When first added to the plan, points are shown in red and will turn green once named.
4. Draw connections between points using the link tool. Start by clicking and holding at a start point and dragging to the next.
5. Reminder: Save your work periodically

General Tips

• Creating a simple network is recommended. To many points and intertwined links can lead to unintended routes being suggested for end-users.
• Route point descriptions are visible to end users and can include basic instructions.
