Georeferencing in the field using constellations of similar you-are-here maps
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we investigate a new interaction technique that enables users to capture You-Are-Here maps using their smartphone, and then manipulate the captured image in such a way that it can be used for navigation purposes. This technique utilises groups of similar You-Are-Here maps, which we call map constellations. Results from our field study, in which we tested a working prototype of our interaction technique, are presented. The results show an insight into users’ views towards the interaction, and the techniques they employed to identically frame two You-Are-Here maps using a smartphone camera.

Investigation of Improvement in Georeferencing of Urban Analog Maps using the Geometric Elements and Genetic Algorithm
A large number of civil registries are available as analog maps that require georeferencing. Besides the quality of the analog maps and control points, the algorithm used for georeferencing also affects the accuracy of the map and the carried out geometrical calculations which indicates the need to study modern Georeferencing Methods. This requires the adoption of georeferencing optimization mo...

متن کاملThe pattern determination of sea surface temperature distribution and chlorophyll a in the Southern Caspian Sea using SOM Model
Remote sensing has changed modern oceanography by proving synoptic periodic data which can be processed. Since the satellite data are usually too much and nonlinear, in most cases, it is difficult to distinguish the patterns from these images. In fact, SOM (Self-Organizing Maps) model is a type of ANN (Artificial Neural Network) that has the ability to distinguish the efficient patterns from th...
