Using the hypothesis that a combination of schematic maps and landmark information will be an effective way of navigation, a prototype that uses these concepts was created.

Landmarks along the route are used as checkpoints and nodal points. Checkpoints are intermediate milestones which the user has to achieve and nodal points are locations on the route where the user takes a turn from his current direction of travel.

In the long run, landmark data required for the route can be retrieved using existing repositories like Flickr and Google Street View or through crowdsourcing. Validation of the user–generate data can be microtasked and crowdsourced to receive quick and authentic feedback.
