Geopital

Geopital, your guide at La Cavale Blanche, at the Regional and University Hospital of Brest. From home, the app works like any other GPS app. From inside the hospital, your phone becomes an e-compass or your dashboard, depending on your guidance mode.

To find your destination, simply select it from the list of points of interest. It happens that some services have a name, an acronym and / or a synonym. In this case, by searching for the acronym or synonym, the name of the associated service is proposed, and you can then select it as the destination.

So, from anywhere, outside or inside the hospital, click on "Find Me", and set your route. After confirmation, choose your guidance mode and follow the instructions. Depending on your phone's sensors and your permissions, some actions may be required.

In advanced mode, the application considers the movements of the phone to be your own. She interprets the signals from the sensors to track her movements. For this reason, hold it flat in front of you, as you would hold a compass.

In assisted mode, no matter how you hold your phone, the app follows the route. You just have to regulate your speed, start and stop according to the circumstances. For the rest, follow the instructions at each intersection.

Either way, don't worry! If necessary, the application will ask you questions. You may thus be asked to correct your starting position or confirm a floor change.

Be careful, inside the Cavale Blanche hospital, no GPS signal! So, unless you are at an entrance, in the lobby or in the emergency room, the app may have doubts about your position. You will then have to choose your starting position from a list of possible locations or to make a long press on the map to indicate your position. It also happens that the temperature and pressure conditions are not optimal, or quite simply, that the barometer of your phone is tired. You will then need to confirm that you have arrived at your destination floor.

Watch out for obstacles! Only you see them. The application does not store or send information without your consent. It only takes into account the signals from the sensors emitted by your phone. She does not see your surroundings or the people around you.
