Abstract

The present disclosure provides methods and systems for facilitating indoor and outdoor navigation on a mobile device. First position information may be received from a first location provider and second position information may be received from a second location provider. Additionally, first normalized position information based at least in part on the first position information and second position information may be obtained. Based at least on the first normalized position information, a determination may be made that a mobile device is transitioning from a first geographic region to a second geographic region. Additionally, a determination may be made that the mobile device has entered a zone associated with the second geographic region. Further, a map of the second geographic region may be displayed on a user interface of the mobile device.
