Property | description
--- | --- | ---
id
| The MazeMap id of the building.
campusId
| The specific campusid the building belongs to
name
| The primary/default name of the building
buildingNames
| An array of all the names belonging to the building. Might contain more names in the future.
floors
| An array of floor-model objects.
simpleGeom
| A GeoJSON formatted geometry object that defines the rough outline of a building
Property | description
--- | --- | ---
id
| The MazeMap id of the floor.
buildingId
| Reference to the id of the parent building for the floor
name
| The primary/default name of the floor
z
| Each floor has it's specific assigned z-value. Usually ground floors have z-value 1.0, and basement floors have negative values, but not necessarily.
floorOutlineId
| An id referencing the outline geometry of the floor. These are fetched in a seperate API call.
If you want to draw floor outlines, or need the geometric location of a floor, you need these geometries. Use the floorOutlineId
property in the floor
model to find the specific floorOutline
.

URL Parameter | value | description |
---|---|---|
campusid |
integer | Defines the campus for which you want the floor geometries |
srid |
4326 or 900913 | Defines the projection format you want for the geometries |
Outputs a GeoJSON FeatureCollection object, where each Feature represents a floorOutline for a specific floor.
It is recommended to parse the object to make a dictionary, using the id
property as key and geometry
as the value

{
"type": "FeatureCollection",
"features": [
{
"type": "Feature",
"id": 996,

type
| The feature type, according to the GeoJSON standard.
id
| The MazeMap id of the floorOutline.
geometry
| A GeoJSON formatted geometry object. Mostly (but not limited to) Polygon or MultiPolygon.
A POI can be any point/area of interest, but in most cases, used to specify individual rooms. Every POI has a unique MazeMap id, but can also be configured to have local reference tags. These can be set-up by for each specific campus. Example of such a reference tag could be "G301-211" which might be a unique room identifier string already in use by other systems at the campus.
