The problems discussed above are only a means to an end.
Ultimately the goal of IMM is to allow users to interact with indoor environments in ways that enhance their use of space.
Many of the problems are interlinked, i.e. and enhancement in one problem will provide improvements in the other. This is particularly the case with acquisition and modelling problems. Figure 1 shows possible ways in which solutions to some problems will benefit or enhance the solution to other problems.
