Abstract
A method of creating suggested pathways across a predefined area for guiding pedestrians across the predefined area is disclosed. The method includes loading a polygon representation of the predefined area, the polygon comprising at least four vertices, and connecting pairs of non-adjacent vertices of the polygon to create the suggested pathways. Alternatively, the method can generate a polygon representation of the predefined area, identify all nodes on a border of the polygon, the nodes being formed by the intersection of two roads on or adjacent to the border of the polygon, and connect pairs of nodes to create the suggested pathways.
