Kongress displays up-to-date indoor maps built from OpenStreetMap data with event overlays applied as event-specific OSM changesets (room names, registration desks) and styled via map CSS; it shows time-dependent venue states per session. Client-side polygon routing is implemented using a game-engine polygon routing library, yields usable routes in hard cases like Paris metro but requires much higher mapping quality, so routing is disabled for this venue until stair and elevator data are fixed.
