Updation in Route Mapping Using Videography Technology
Abhishai E. Amair5Abstract - Visualization works from a human perspective because we respond to and process visual data better than any other type of data, that’s why we taught about route mapping using videography technology. The technical validation of videography navigate on, a new service that makes use of the map platform, and the basis for building multiple services in a high-accuracy positioning society. The capacity to give real-time video information, which may be utilized to improve navigation accuracy, is one of the main benefits of videography navigation. Videography navigation may be a pillar of positioning technology in the future with more research and testing.
Key Words: Video graphic Technology, Informatory Landmarks, Navigation, Route mapping ETC..
1. INTRODUCTION
Google Maps does not show us photographs of the sites thatwill bealongtheroadtoourdestination sinceitonly showsa visual representationof the major locationthata travelerwishestoreach.GoogleMapssimplyprovidesthe turn distances. For example, if we are travelling while there lies a turn afterward, Google Maps will inform us that the turn is 300 meters away or something similar. However, if someone misses a turn sometimes, Google Mapswillrerouteusandshowusalongerpath.Thisissue won'timpactourmapssincewegivethemphotographsof landmarks, allowing the user or passenger to readily acknowledgetheimageincludedintherouteandtakethe turn. Additionally, our project will conserve time and gasoline, because it enables travelers to get there more quickly.Thevisualizationworksfromahumanstandpoint because we react to and absorb visual information more quicklythananyothersortofdata.Visualimageswillplay a significant role in the future, That's why we considered usingvideographytechnologywithroutemapping.
Maps is now one of the primary ways to go to the target location due to the improvement in the quality of videos and the increasing number of its users. This enables the integrationofGoogleMapswithvideographytechnologies.
This research says that businesses that have started applying digital maps have seen an increase in staff productivity,improvedvisual communication,anda more than 50% reduction in the cost of logistics and resource
planning. Online markets, delivery services, farming, property management, engineering either media, power and utilities, insurance, and architecture are just a few of the numerous sectors that have benefited from this technology - O.S. Asaolu et al (2018)[1]. This study says that the availability of online mapping tools like Maps by Google and Street View has increased. Although there are numerous practical applications for these technologies in daily life, law enforcement organizations have voiced worry that they may be used by criminals to their advantageandpotentiallychangeestablishedpatternsand habits of criminal behavior. Despite not being designed withscientificinquiryinmind,MapsbyGoogleandStreet View provide intriguing opportunities for studyChristophe Vandeviver et al (2014)[2]. Web map services are a new type of map service that was made possible by the use of GIS, computer, and internet technologies. This article uses the Google Maps Application Programming Interface (API) and XML to create a network release mechanism for regional land use data and applies Web map services to the distribution of land use information. The application programming interface for Google Maps based on its three map modes was introduced by Google. Chenzjietal(2010)[3].

2.2 SELECTION OF LAND MARKS FOR ROUTE MAPPING
The selection of landmarks for route mapping is an essential step in creating an accurate and useful route mappingvideo.Itinvolvesdefiningtheproject'sobjectives, identifyingthetargetaudience,visualizablephotosandthe desired outcome of the project, identifying the landmarks thatarerelevanttotheproject,determiningtheirvisibility, and recognizability and planning the logistics of capturing photosandvideosofthem.
This includes scouting the locations to determine the best angles and lighting conditions for capturing high-quality footage,andcoordinatingwithlocalauthoritiesorproperty owners to ensure that the capture process goes smoothly and without interruption. The selection of landmarks for route mapping is an essential step in creating an accurate andusefulroutemappingvideo.
By considering factors such as the visibility and recognizability of landmarks, their location, and their relevance to the audience, the resulting map provides valuableinformationthatiseasytounderstandandfollow.

Capturing photos and videos of landmarks and key points along the route is essential for creating a visual guide for navigation and accurate mapping. GPS- enabled cameras are expensive, so alternative methods such as manually tagging each photo and video with location data are also available.

3. METHODOLOGY OF EXPERIMENT
On our website, there is a page where visitors may choose their starting place and final destination for a journey. The page uses the responsive Bootstrap 4.3.1 framework and has a dark mode design. Two dropdown choices on the form let you choose the beginning and ending points, respectively. After the form is submitted, a scriptisruntoprocessthedataandcarryoutanadditional actionnotmentionedinthepresentcode.
3.1 DESIGN
The website has a slick, contemporary layout with a dark color palette. The form's max-width and min-width are both 500px, and it includes a border with a 1px thickness and the color #555555. The form-group labels are styled with a margin-bottom of 5px and a display of block.Thepaddingfortheselectelementsis12pxand20 px, and their width is 100%. The select element's background image is an ion icons-provided down arrow icon.Theform'sbackground-sizeandappearancearesetto 20pxby20px,andthesubmitbuttonis100%widewitha backgroundcolorof#00bfffandafontcolorof#f5f5f5.The text-align has been set to centre, and the padding is 12px 20px. There is a transitional effect applied to the background-color property, and the text decoration is nonexistent. The labels for the starting point and destinationselectelementsarestyledwithafontawesome iconofamapmarker.
3.2 WORKING
Fordemopurposeyourwebsiteisavailablelocallyandnot global so as of now people can only access this website if theyhaveitintheircomputerslocally.Afterthewebsiteis testedandapprovedthewebsitewillbemakinggloballyso everyone can access and use our project. After the user loads our project in their browser like chrome, brave, internet explorer, etc. If your net speed is slow then the website will show a loading screen till the project is not fully loaded into the browser after the website is fully loaded. You will see the name of the project at the center alongwithaformandamapjustnexttotheform.Theform willconsistoftwoinputsoneforthestartingpointandthe otherfordestinationorendpoint.Thestartingpointinput will be disabled because we have taken our collegeas the center so the starting point will always be the starting point. When click on destination point input multiple
option will appear, they are the location that theuser can goto.
After the user clicks a destination andpresses go button. The control will go to the JavaScript function which is assigned with the form. The function will retriever the information like the starting point and the end point and then provides this information to the Google maps. The Google maps will provide destination or end point information. After this the mapwhich was showing our college at the start will now show the route to the destination or end point. The formwill also get changed, nowitwillhavetwonewfieldsoneforthetimerequiredto go to that station and the over will show the distance between our college that is the starting point and the destination selected by the user. After sometime a video will be played which will showtheroutefromthestarting pointanddestinationorendpoint.Afterthevideoisplayed the user will be redirected to the Google maps app for route.Nowastheuserknowstheroutethatwas playedin the video, he or she will follow that route andthe Google mapwilladjusttherouteaccording.
