Over-reliance on automated navigation systems may cause users to be “mindless” of the environment and not develop the spatial knowledge that maybe required when automation fails. This research focused on the potential degradation in spatial knowledge acquisition due to the reliance on automatic wayfinding systems. In addition, the impact of “keeping the user in the loop” strategies on spatial knowledge...
While navigation instructions in terms of turn instructions and distances are suitable for guiding drivers on roads, a different context of use - like pedestrian navigation - requires extended routing data and algorithms as well as adapted presentation forms to be effective. In our work we study alternative forms of navigation instructions for pedestrians in city environments. In this paper we explore...
The character of a landscape can be seen as the outcome of people’s perception of their physical environment, which is important for spatial planning and decision making. Three modes of landscape perception are proposed: view from a viewpoint, view from a road, and view of an area. Three sampling methods to calculate visibility measures simulate these modes of perception. We compared the results of...
