Methods and systems for generating local- and global-walkable paths for route guidance

A non-transitory, tangible computer-readable medium storing instructions that, when executed, cause one or more processing devices to:

• determine, by the computing device, a trigger event occurred, wherein the trigger event comprising reading information that encodes an identity of an online store, an identity of an application, and an indication of a destination location;
• determine, by an application executed on the computing device, an initial location of the computing device;
• send, by the application executed on the computing device, to a server an indication of the initial location of the computing device;
• receive, by the computing device from the server, a map comprising a floorplan including at least the initial location and a plurality of locations;
• present, by the application executed on the computing device, the map on a display.

A system comprising:

• one or more memory devices storing instructions;
• and
• one or more processing devices communicatively coupled to the one or more memory devices, wherein the one or more processing devices execute the instructions to:
• determine, by the computing device, a trigger event occurred, wherein the trigger event comprising reading information that encodes an identity of an online store, an identity of an application, and an indication of a destination location;
• determine, by an application executed on the computing device, an initial location of the computing device;
• send, by the application executed on the computing device, to a server an indication of the initial location of the computing device;
• receive, by the computing device from the server, a map comprising a floorplan including at least the initial location and a plurality of locations;
• and
• present, by the application executed on the computing device, the map on a display.
