Creating You-Are-Here Maps: Mapping location and orientation using photographs
Difficulty in interpreting and using spatial information from You-Are-Here maps (YAH maps specify a viewer’s location and orientation) stems from a misalignment between one’s physical orientation and the map’s orientation. The current research investigates the relationship between the participant’s physical location and orientation in accurately placing the location and orientation of another i...
متن کاملYou-Are-Here Maps for International Space Station: Approach and Guidelines
Guidelines for designing you-are-here (YAH) maps aboard International Space Station (ISS) are proposed, based on results from previous 3D spatial navigation studies conducted by our research group and colleagues. This paper reviews terrestrial YAH maps, the common errors associated with them, and how to appropriately implement what is known from terrestrial to micro-gravity YAH maps. We conclud...
متن کاملCreating knowledge maps using Memory Islands
Knowledge maps are useful tools for managing and sharing the largescale hierarchical knowledge that have recently started to be widely applied. In this paper, we discuss how knowledge maps can be generated by using Memory Islands. Memory Islands is our work on progress visualization technique, which was inspired by the ancient "Art of Memory". It consists of automatically creating the spatial c...
متن کاملA Multi-Strategy Spatial Navigation Model in a Text-Based Environment
Cognitive maps have been used to explain the cognitive processes underlying human spatial memory for several decades. Numerous theories have offered explanations regarding the structure of cognitive maps from the perspectives of spatial cognition, visual perception, and neuroscience. Within this literature, two representations of cognitive maps (map-like representations and route-based represen...
متن کاملYou Are Where? The Function and Frustration of You-Are-Here (YAH) Maps
In this article, I define you-are-here (YAH) maps and consider their fundamental characteristics from cartographic and psychological perspectives. I then review the basic phenomenon of the alignment effect, including why it happens and how it may be overcome; I also consider exceptions to the alignment effect. Finally, I briefly note some special issues with YAH maps that arise when a person us...
