receiving information about peripheral wireless access points (APs) around the user terminal from the user terminal; and

determining an indoor location of the user terminal based on a similarity between fingerprint information and information about each of the peripheral wireless APs around the user terminal, the fingerprint information including information about each of a plurality of peripheral wireless APs that is collected for each of a plurality of points of the target building.

5. The method of claim 4 , wherein the movement path information is generated based on the indoor location of the user terminal.

6. The method of claim 4 , further comprising:

providing the movement path information to the user terminal;

correcting the movement path information based on the indoor location of the user terminal; and

providing the corrected movement path information to the user terminal.

7. The method of claim 4 , further comprising:

collecting the fingerprint information at equal intervals in the target building,

wherein the fingerprint information includes, for each of the plurality of points in the target building, a media access control (MAC) address and signal strength of each of the plurality of peripheral wireless APs that are located around the point, and

wherein the determining of the indoor location of the user terminal includes,

determining a similarity between signal strengths of each of the plurality of peripheral wireless APs corresponding to each of the plurality of points in the target building and signal strengths of each of the wireless APs around the user terminal based on MAC addresses of the plurality of peripheral wireless APs and a MAC addresses of the wireless APs around the user terminal, and

determining a point, from among the plurality of points in the target building, that corresponds to the highest similarity as the indoor location of the user terminal.

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein each of the one or more first inter-floor moving devices includes at least one of an elevator, an escalator, or stairs.

9. A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by a computer, cause the computer to perform operations including,

generating movement path information from a source location to a destination location in a target building including a plurality of floors and one or more first inter-floor moving devices;

configuring a card view including the movement path information according to each floor from among the plurality of floors; and

providing a card view of an occupied floor to a user terminal based on a location of the user terminal, the occupied floor being a floor, from among the plurality of floors, where a user terminal is located,

wherein the providing includes providing a new card view of a new floor to the user terminal such that the new card view is displayed on the user terminal when the occupied floor changes to the new floor, irrespective of a request from the user terminal,

wherein the movement path information is generated based on information about one or more inter-floor moving devices, from among the one or more first inter-floor moving devices, included on paths which extend from the source location to the destination location, and

wherein the card view includes information about one or more inter-floor moving devices, from among the one or more first inter-floor moving devices, of the occupied floor.

10. A service system implemented with a computer, the system comprising:

a memory storing computer-executable instructions; and

at least one processor configured to execute computer-executable instructions such that the at least one processor is configured to,

generate movement path information from a source location to a destination location in a target building including a plurality of floors and one or more first inter-floor moving devices such that the movement path information is generated based on information about one or more inter-floor moving devices, from among the one or more first inter-floor moving devices, included on paths that extend from the source location to the destination location,

configure a card view including the movement path information according to each floor from among the plurality of floors such that the card view includes information about one or more inter-floor moving devices, from among the one or more first inter-floor moving devices, of an occupied floor, the occupied floor being a floor, from among the plurality of floors, where a user terminal is located, and

provide a card view of the occupied floor to the user terminal based on a location of the user terminal,

wherein the providing includes providing a new card view of a new floor to the user terminal such that the new card view is displayed on the user terminal when the occupied floor changes to the new floor, irrespective of a request from the user terminal.

11. The system of claim 10 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to execute computer-executable instructions such that the at least one processor is configured to provide information about the one or more first inter-floor moving devices to the user terminal and generate the movement path information to include an inter-floor moving device selected by the user terminal among the one or more first inter-floor moving devices.
