Overview

Campus Place Finder is a configuration of ArcGIS and a JavaScript application that offers a map-based view of interior and exterior assets on a university or business campus.

Campus Place Finder can be used by employees, students, and visitors to search for a building space or employee by name or to use the map and floor navigator to find an area of interest. When the search function is used, the application presents a list of spaces or employees with similar names, allowing the application user to select the appropriate space or employee. The application will then show the location of the employee or space on the campus map.
