Abstract
The paper provides a data model in the form of ontology which includes the indoor location description of hospitals, the indoor navigation features and the accessibility attributes for people with motion disabilities. The possible use of the ontology is demonstrated by outlining some SPARQL queries for the navigation features of future applications.
