The complexity of disasters creates a significant challenge in the knowledge acquisition of
the public. With the development of geospatial technologies, maps, geographic information …

Virtual scenes can present rich and clear disaster information, which can significantly
improve the level of public disaster perception. However, existing methods for constructing …

This review article collects knowledge on the use of eye-tracking and machine learning
methods for application in automated and interactive geovisualization systems. Our focus is …

We present a human cognition framework for information visualization. This framework
emphasizes how top-down cognitive processing enables the induction of insight, reasoning …

Finding one's way is a fundamental daily activity and has been widely studied in the field of
geospatial cognition. Immersive virtual reality (iVR) techniques provide new approaches for …

Web-based distributed modelling architectures are gaining increasing recognition as

In this chapter, we review and summarize the current state of the art in geovisualization and
extended reality (ie, virtual, augmented and mixed reality), covering a wide range of …

Despite the now-ubiquitous two-dimensional (2D) electronic maps, three-dimensional (3D)
globe viewers, or 3D geo-browsers such as Google Earth and NASA World Wind have …

The primary goal of this study is to empirically analyse the influence of colour distance and
font size on map readability. We utilized eye-tracking to complement the classical usability …

In this contribution, we first focus on maps as landmarks of cartographic innovation in the
context of societal and technical developments in history. This historical analysis stimulated …
