# Mapwise > Mapwise is the 2D and 3D indoor wayfinding platform built by Connectiv in Dubai. It turns a venue's floor plans into an interactive indoor map with search, routing and multi-floor navigation, publishing to web, iOS, Android and kiosk from one source. Mapwise is not Mapwize, the indoor mapping company acquired by ServiceNow in 2021, and it is not MapWise Inc., a Florida land and GIS search service unrelated to indoor wayfinding. This Mapwise is built by Connectiv, headquartered in Dubai, UAE, and operates across the UAE, Saudi Arabia and Qatar. ## Product - [Platform overview](https://www.mapwise.uk/platform/): Every platform capability, grouped by who uses it: visitor-facing map, the studio to build and maintain it, and the underlying API. - [Indoor wayfinding, explained](https://www.mapwise.uk/indoor-wayfinding/): How indoor wayfinding works, what it replaces, what it costs, and when it is not worth doing. - [3D indoor maps](https://www.mapwise.uk/3d-indoor-maps/): When a 3D view helps visitors orient themselves, when 2D is faster, and how both are built from one floor plan. - [Indoor wayfinding software: a buyer guide](https://www.mapwise.uk/indoor-wayfinding-software/): Criteria for evaluating indoor wayfinding platforms, including where Mapwise fits and where another vendor may be a better fit. - [Live demo](https://www.mapwise.uk/demo/): Interactive 2D and 3D maps of real deployments, searchable with live routing. ## Solutions by venue type - [Shopping malls and retail](https://www.mapwise.uk/solutions/retail/): Store search, tenant analytics, in-map promotion. - [Hospitals and healthcare](https://www.mapwise.uk/solutions/healthcare/): Department search and step-free routing. - [Airports](https://www.mapwise.uk/solutions/airports/): Gate search across terminals and levels. - [Corporate campuses](https://www.mapwise.uk/solutions/corporate/): Visitor routing and room scheduling. - [Exhibitions and events](https://www.mapwise.uk/solutions/exhibitions/): Stand navigation, reconfigured per event. ## Regional - [Indoor wayfinding in Saudi Arabia](https://www.mapwise.uk/indoor-wayfinding-saudi-arabia/): Arabic-first indoor wayfinding for malls, hospitals, airports and campuses across the Kingdom. - [Indoor wayfinding in the UAE and Dubai](https://www.mapwise.uk/indoor-wayfinding-uae/): Delivered from the Connectiv innovation centre in Dubai. ## Company - [About Mapwise](https://www.mapwise.uk/company/about/): The team, the mission, and where Mapwise runs. - [Contact](https://www.mapwise.uk/company/contact/): Book a demo, sent to sales@mapwise.uk. ## Facts - Built by Connectiv, headquartered in Dubai, UAE.
