MazeMap has released a new and improved LIPI indoor positioning software called LIPI 4.0.1. The process of updating to the newest LIPI version is simple and straightforward if you have access to the correct services, and your existing LIPI server is connected to the internet. (If your LIPI server is not connected to the internet, you can do please go follow the steps in this installation guide.)
