Visiting an unfamiliar destination especially those large public buildings such as shopping center, university campus, science museum, etc. can be stressful as it increases the chance where people may get lost at some point. Wayfinding comes with a wayfinding software where it can help shoppers or visitors to navigate through the maps and directories and also find their way to the desired location.
We’re a generation of Google Maps users which means that when we need to get somewhere, we’d rather do it alone. When potential employees, visitors or guests arrive at your building, providing them with the tools to navigate independently is a gift. Digital wayfinding can be added to any screen, kiosk or tablet that you already have positioned in your lobby or corridors. This ensures your visitors can navigate from anywhere and can check in at any time if they need a direction refresh.
Often, we absorb information better when we read or do it ourselves. Rather than have a staff member direct a visitor, digital wayfinding allows them to take charge of their own journey. This makes navigation easier and that all important first impression more seamless.
One of the things we love about Wayfinding is that you don’t have to be super technical to create your own wayfinding application. Pre-built or ready made interfaces are available
so if you already have floorplans you can drop these in and create directions without much assistance from your buddies in IT
