Wayfinding and Maps

Clear navigation across spaces and devices

Wayfinding and maps help people navigate complex environments with confidence. Whether planning a visit in advance or finding a destination on-site, clear guidance reduces friction, saves time, and improves the overall experience.

Modern wayfinding must work consistently across screens, devices, and locations.

How we make it easy

Display5 approaches wayfinding as a connected experience, not a single screen. People can start looking up directions on a mobile device or computer and continue using the same maps on digital signs inside the facility.

  • Directions are available on mobile devices, desktops, and on-site digital signs.
  • People can access the same information before arriving and while navigating on-site.
  • People can start looking up directions on the device that’s most convenient for them. Maps and directions remain consistent across all environments.
  • Wayfinding works whether someone is planning ahead or already on-site.
  • Interactive kiosk screens which are 100% map or mixed with other content types.
  • Map updates are quickly implemented.
  • Integrate with Waze, Google Maps or Apple Maps for seamless journey from home to your facility.
  • Wayfinding supports how people actually move through buildings and campuses.
  • Directions are clear, practical, and easy to follow in real time. Offer turn-by-turn, positional or blue-dot directions.
  • Wayfinding can be deployed across multiple locations from a single platform.
  • No additional point solutions or disconnected systems. Manage the kiosk hardware and content from the Display5 platform.
Why us

Why enterprises like to work with Display5

Enterprises choose Display5 for wayfinding because we provide an integrated wayfinding signage capability that also delivers consistent, mobile and website-friendly navigation without adding another siloed system. Wayfinding works as part of a broader platform, not a standalone tool.

One platform for wayfinding and digital signs

Enterprises value a single platform that supports wayfinding alongside other digital sign use cases, reducing vendor sprawl and operational overhead.

Mobile-first engagement

Most wayfinding interactions happen on mobile devices or computers, not just on physical signs. Display5 supports this reality by extending navigation beyond the in-building kiosks and allows you to create the home-to-destination navigational experience for end users.

Scales across locations and environments

From a single building to a global campus network, enterprises can deploy consistent wayfinding experiences without reimplementing technology.

Reduced operational complexity

Centralized management makes it easier for IT and facilities teams to:

Maintain maps Update directions Support ongoing changes

Built for enterprise governance

Wayfinding operates within the same enterprise-grade framework used for other communication needs, supporting security, control, and long-term scalability.

FAQ

Helpful answers to common questions
