Project Overview:

The Campus Navigation App is a mobile application designed to help students, faculty, and visitors navigate a college or university campus. It uses interactive maps, GPS location services, and building data to provide real-time, step-by-step navigation across the campus — including classrooms, labs, cafeterias, hostels, libraries, administrative offices, and more.

Technologies Used:

• Frontend (Mobile App):
  HTML, CSS, Bootstrap, JavaScript (via Cordova / Ionic / React Native)
• Backend:
  PHP / Java / Node.js (for managing map data and user routes)
• Database:
  MySQL or MongoDB (to store campus map, building data, user queries)
• APIs & Tools:
  Google Maps API / OpenStreetMap, Geolocation API

Core Features:

1. Interactive Campus Map:
   • Visual layout of the campus using Google Maps or custom SVG/Canvas maps.
   • Pin locations of buildings, rooms, landmarks, events, and hotspots.
2. Real-Time Navigation:
   • GPS-based directions from current location to any selected building or room.
   • Indoor navigation support using QR codes or Wi-Fi positioning (optional).
3. Search & Filter Locations:
   • Search for departments, staff rooms, event venues, washrooms, food courts, etc.
   • Filter by category (academic, administrative, residential, recreational).
4. Route Optimization:
   • Shortest path calculation between two points.
   • Walking or shuttle route options.
5. Department & Staff Info:
   • Tap on a building to view department details, faculty offices, contact info.
6. Event Mapping & Notifications:
   • View upcoming events on the map.
   • Push notifications for live events or venue changes.
7. Accessibility Support:
   • Highlight routes suitable for differently-abled users (e.g., wheelchair-friendly paths, ramps, elevators).
8. Offline Map Mode (Optional):
   • Downloadable map and cached data for offline usage.
9. Admin Panel:
   • Update new building entries, events, and campus changes from the backend
