Interactive Context-Aware Visualization for Mobile Devices
نویسندگان
چکیده
Utilizing context information—e.g. location, user aspects, or hardware capabilities—enables the presented generic framework to automatically control the selection and configuration of visualization techniques and therewith provide interactive illustrations, displayed on small mobile devices. For contextannotated data, provided by an underlying context-aware world model, the proposed system determines adequate visualization methods out of a database. Based on a novel analysis of a hierarchical data format definition and an evaluation of relevant context attributes, visualization templates are selected, configured, and instanced. This automatic, interactive process enables visualizations that smartly reconfigure according to changed context aspects. In addition to the generic concept, we present real-world applications that make use of this framework.

To assist wayfinding and navigation, the display of maps and driving directions on mobile devices is nowadays commonplace. While existing system can naturally exploit GPS information to facilitate orientation, the inherently limited screen space is often perceived as a drawback compared to traditional street maps as it constrains the perception of contextual information. Moreover, occlusion iss...
