Wayfinding with Schematic Maps

...that is what we are working on.

I2-[MapSpace] in a nutshell:
The project develops a formal framework for adaptive wayfinding assistance systems. This framework will serve to produce a theory of schematic representations for geographic information. We devise representations, specifically schematic maps, to match human conceptualization. This enables the development of assistance systems that adapt to the users' cognitive background. The development of computational models is accompanied by empirical studies; this allows a direct coupling of formal analysis and empirical results.
