“…This configuration, however, gives mental rotation loads to the users during map exploration and navigation [11], [14]. To alleviate these problems, we argue that map views on map touring systems should apply both forward-up (in ERF) and north-up (in WRF) orientations as illustrated in Fig.…”

“…Efforts have been made to help people access survey knowledge (e.g., overviews in 3D games), route knowledge (Elvins et al 1997), and landmark knowledge (Vinson 1999;Pierce and Pausch 2004). Overview maps in virtual environments can also be automatically aligned with the direction of locomotion (Darken and Cevik 1999), giving users track-up maps, just like maps provided by GPS-based navigation tools in real life. Consideration has also been given to the improvement of the organization of spatial structures (Darken and Sibert 1996), based on a theory in architectural design: a better organized environment is easy to navigate (Lynch 1960).…”
