Campus Maps

An interactive app that helps students navigate and explore the university campus.

Context & Motivation

This project was developed as part of the Computer Engineering degree at Polytechnic of Leiria, together with my colleague Tiago Silvestre.


The goal was to solve a real problem: students (especially newcomers) often struggle to find rooms or services on campus. Campus Maps was designed to make that process easier and more intuitive.

The project was well received by both the evaluation committee and the students who tested and used the application. It proved to be a practical and intuitive solution for navigating the university campus, especially for newcomers.


Developing Campus Maps was a valuable learning experience that allowed me to apply my development skills, from designing the interface to building the backend and integrating map technologies.
