1. A method by a system device for providing an enhanced user experience in an indoor environment, the method comprising:
receiving, by the system device and based on at least one optimization criterion, shopping data associated with a user, wherein the at least one optimization criterion includes at least one of a distance criterion, a budget criterion, and a social distancing criterion;
generating, by the system device and based on the shopping data associated with the user, an item list comprising one or more items arranged in an order based on at least one priority criterion, the at least one optimization criterion, or a combination thereof;
determining, by the system device, real-time location data of a user device, associated with the user, in the indoor environment;
obtaining, by the system device and based on the real-time location data, indoor mapping and floor plan information collected by a drone and associated with the indoor environment;
generating, based on the indoor mapping and floor plan information collected by the drone, a virtual 3D model of the indoor environment;
generating, based on the real-time location data of the user device, the item list, and the virtual 3D model of the indoor environment, navigational data; and
outputting, by the system device and to a user interface of the user device, the virtual 3D model of the indoor environment and the navigational data.
