Wayfinding Technologies have become essential to navigation in airports. Giving passengers an easy, positive experience will keep them coming back to fly over and over again.
Wayfinding refers to information systems used to guide people to a particular place, helping them navigate and providing an understanding of the physical environment around them. In order to have a successful WayFinding system you need two things; the hardware (Digital Enclosure / Interactive Signage kiosks) and WayFinding Software.
WAYFINDING IN AVIATION
WayFinding is particularly useful for passengers who are traveling. When a person is navigating through an airport, for example, they want to find their gate, baggage, exit area, and more.
As noted in Airport Wayfinding: Guiding Passengers and Expressing Identity on SEDG.org, airports continue to expand as travel demands increase and technology develops. They note that,
"Doing more than simply guiding travelers from one point to another, the visual language of wayfinding signage often conveys an airport’s unique brand identity using distinct colors, fonts and pictograms."
