Datascape: A mobile exploration of georeferenced data
نویسنده
چکیده
We describe a location-aware system for the visual and auditory representation of georeferenced datasets. The portable system is designed to be deployed in vehicles but also can be used for stationary simulations. The system is composed of four major elements: a geodatabase, a data visualization engine, a sonification engine, and a periscope-like display/sensing/interface device. As users travel through space, they are presented with a moveable window into the surrounding data world. Terrain visualization provides grounding in the physical world, while other non-physical data are experienced as an overlaid environment of sonic and visual structures.

متن کاملA Device-aware Spatial 3D Visualization Platform for Mobile Urban Exploration
Mobile devices displaying 2D map representations are already commonly used for the exploration of urban surroundings on the move. Even though mobile detailed 3D visualizations promise to be an attractive way to cope with the increasing amount of georeferenced information, their widespread use is hampered by the fragmentation of today’s mobile device landscape. In this paper, we tackle this real...
متن کاملThe Changing Transport Datascape - Opportunities and Challenges
The safe and efficient operation of the transport system is a fundamental national requirement. This in turn depends on a wide range of analysis and modelling tools that are used in the planning, operation and management of transport systems and in the development and delivery of transport services. These analysis and modelling tools have historically been constrained by data that are severely ...

The work described in this paper focuses on how to reveal culturally-related data to city tourists to help them in navigating both the physical space through which they are moving (the cityscape) and a conceptual space around points of interest which links them through shared stories of time, place, people and theme (the datascape). The research goal is to discover to what extent navigational s...
