TY - JOUR PY - 2021// TI - Evaluation of pedestrian navigation in Smart Cities JO - Environment and planning. B, urban analytics and city science A1 - Stähli, Lisa A1 - Giannopoulos, Ioannis A1 - Raubal, Martin SP - 1728 EP - 1745 VL - 48 IS - 6 N2 - This work addresses recent research in the area of pedestrian navigation aids that aims at finding alternatives to the widely used map-based turn-by-turn navigation systems in the context of Smart City environments. Four different approaches of pedestrian navigation systems were compared to each other in a user experiment that was conducted in a virtual environment: (1) map-based, (2) landmark-based, (3) augmented reality, and (4) public display navigation. The results of the experiment with 45 participants conducted in a virtual environment suggest that the augmented reality navigation performs best concerning efficiency and effectiveness and the landmark-based navigation performs worst in the context of Smart Cities.
