When incoming students come to the UIUC campus for the first time and attend classes in the first few weeks, they usually have a difficult time recognizing buildings and have very little knowledge about them. Our web-app WhereAmI helps students identify buildings and provides them with useful information about the buildings in the engineering campus.
