The use of car navigation systems is a convenient way to reach a destination. However, users often become device-focused and develop only a reduced understanding of their environment. Common navigation systems focus on the route and its instructions. Landmarks are seldom used in navigation systems, yet they are important elements to support spatial orientation during wayfinding tasks. One way to convey information about landmarks is to display them in a navigation system’s map interface. Due to limited screen sizes and map scales, landmarks are mostly outside the mapped area. This work develops and tests two types of visualizations of off-screen landmarks to support spatial orientation while navigating. Implemented as Android Application.
