Abstract. An environment of understanding means that how to collect, store and process an information about the physical environment around us. Process and categories to recognize individuals successful in the environment and wayfinding, It is challenging. This article reviews the literature on important issues in wayfinding them; This article main theorists, Lynch, Kaplan and Pasini beginning stages of formation and development of wayfinding and analysis put forward their ideas and then wayfinding to the new research focuses on different issues. The main working paper focuses on the research, which was conducted by the library and the main study, explaining the concept of wayfinding, wayfinding strategy, wayfinding of different people, different individual, gender, age and cultural group different components and wayfinding components, and finally check the wayfinding conceptual models.
