In particular, the production of high-quality integrated data from multiple sources requires an understanding of their respective characteristics and a systematic assessment of the consistency within and between the data sources. In order to perform the assessment, the data has to be placed on a common ground. However, in practice, heterogeneous geodata are often provided in diverse formats and organized in significantly different structures. In this work, we propose a framework that uses an ontology-based approach to overcome the heterogeneity by means of a domain ontology, so that consistency rules can be evaluated at the unified ontological representation of the data sources. In our case study, we use open governmental data from Open Data Portals (ODPs) and volunteered geographic information from OpenStreetMap (OSM) as two test data sources in the area of the province of South Tyrol, Italy. Our preliminary experiment shows that the approach is effective in detecting inconsistencies within and between ODP and OSM data. These findings provide valuable insights for a better combined usage of these datasets.

Spatial knowledge acquisition with virtual semantic landmarks in mixed reality-based indoor navigation / Bing Liu in Cartography and Geographic Information Science, vol 48 n° 4 (July 2021)  

Public [article]  inCartography and Geographic Information Science > vol 48 n° 4 (July 2021) . - pp 305 - 319 Titre : Spatial knowledge acquisition with virtual semantic landmarks in mixed reality-based indoor navigation Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Bing Liu, Auteur ; Linfang Ding, Auteur ; Liqiu Meng, Auteur Année de publication : 2021 Article en page(s) : pp 305 - 319 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Analyse spatiale [Termes IGN] conception orientée utilisateur [Termes IGN] GPS assisté pour la navigation (technologies) [Termes IGN] hologramme [Termes IGN] information sémantique [Termes IGN] navigation virtuelle [Termes IGN] point de repère [Termes IGN] positionnement en intérieur [Termes IGN] questionnaire [Termes IGN] réalité mixte [Termes IGN] téléphone intelligent [Termes IGN] utilisateur civil Résumé : (auteur) Landmarks are essential and widely used in human navigation. However, many indoor environments lack visually salient landmarks, which leads to difficulties in navigating in and learning complex and similar-looking indoor environments. In this study, we designed and implemented virtual semantic landmarks in Mixed Reality (MR)-based indoor environments and conducted a user study to explore whether such landmarks can assist spatial knowledge acquisition during navigation. More specifically, we employed the untethered, head-mounted mixed reality device Microsoft HoloLens and used iconic holograms to show the semantic landmarks. In the user study, we used sketch map, landmark locating tasks and interview to assess the results of the spatial knowledge acquisition and collect advice on improving the MR-based navigation interface. The results show that virtual semantic landmarks can assist the acquisition of corresponding knowledge, as such landmarks were labeled second most often in landmark locating task. In addition, individual cases show that head-mounted mixed reality devices may influence not only vision, but also height or time perception of certain users. Our result can be applied to facilitate the design of MR-based navigation interfaces and assist spatial knowledge acquisition.

An IEEE value loop of human-technology collaboration in geospatial information science / Liqiu Meng in Geo-spatial Information Science, vol 23 n° 1 (March 2020)  

Public [article]  inGeo-spatial Information Science > vol 23 n° 1 (March 2020) . - pp 61- 67 Titre : An IEEE value loop of human-technology collaboration in geospatial information science Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Liqiu Meng, Auteur Année de publication : 2020 Article en page(s) : pp 61- 67 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Information géographique [Termes IGN] analyse géovisuelle [Termes IGN] approche holistique [Termes IGN] données localisées numériques [Termes IGN] enrichissement sémantique [Termes IGN] éthique [Termes IGN] géographie sociale [Termes IGN] information sémantique [Termes IGN] intégration de données [Termes IGN] intelligence artificielle [Termes IGN] interface homme-machine [Termes IGN] recherche interdisciplinaire [Termes IGN] web sémantique Résumé : (auteur) Geosensing and social sensing as two digitalization mainstreams in big data era are increasingly converging toward an integrated system for the creation of semantically enriched digital Earth. Along with the rapid developments of AI technologies, this convergence has inevitably brought about a number of transformations. On the one hand, value-adding chains from raw data to products and services are becoming value-adding loops composed of four successive stages – Informing, Enabling, Engaging and Empowering (IEEE). Each stage is a dynamic loop for itself. On the other hand, the “human versus technology” relationship is upgraded toward a game-changing “human and technology” collaboration. The information loop is essentially shaped by the omnipresent reciprocity between humans and technologies as equal partners, co-learners and co-creators of new values. The paper gives an analytical review on the mutually changing roles and responsibilities of humans and technologies in the individual stages of the IEEE loop, with the aim to promote a holistic understanding of the state of the art of geospatial information science. Meanwhile, the author elicits a number of challenges facing the interwoven human-technology collaboration. The transformation to a growth mind-set may take time to realize and consolidate. Research works on large-scale semantic data integration are just in the beginning. User experiences of geovisual analytic approaches are far from being systematically studied. Finally, the ethical concerns for the handling of semantically enriched digital Earth cover not only the sensitive issues related to privacy violation, copyright infringement, abuse, etc. but also the questions of how to make technologies as controllable and understandable as possible for humans and how to keep the technological ethos within its constructive sphere of societal influence.

Measuring the influence of map label density on perceived complexity: a user study using eye tracking / Liao Hua in Cartography and Geographic Information Science, vol 46 n° 3 (May 2019)  

Public [article]  inCartography and Geographic Information Science > vol 46 n° 3 (May 2019) . - pp 210 - 227 Titre : Measuring the influence of map label density on perceived complexity: a user study using eye tracking Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Liao Hua, Auteur ; Wang Xueyuan, Auteur ; Weihua Dong, Auteur ; Liqiu Meng, Auteur Année de publication : 2019 Article en page(s) : pp 210 - 227 Note générale : Bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Termes IGN] analyse de données [Termes IGN] complexité de la carte [Termes IGN] densité d'information [Termes IGN] oculométrie [Vedettes matières IGN] Cartologie Résumé : (Auteur) We combine eye tracking and a questionnaire-based approach to explore the influence of label density on the perceived visual complexity of maps. We design two experiments in which participants are asked to search for the names of point features on maps and to rate the map complexity and legibility for different label densities. Specifically, we conduct a highly controlled experiment in which all the map variables except the label density are held constant (the controlled experiment). Then, we conduct a second experiment following the same protocol but using real maps as visual stimuli (the real-map experiment) to verify if the results of the controlled experiment were applicable to real maps. The results of both experiments indicate a significantly positive correlation between perceived visual complexity and label density and between the response time in visual search tasks and label density. Surprisingly, we observe a significant inverse correlation between the label density and two eye movement parameters (fixation duration and fixation frequency) between the two experiments. We discuss how the variables of real maps might have affected these eye movement parameters and why the results of the two experiments are inconsistent. Our findings suggest that eye tracking parameters are not reliable indicators of map complexity. These empirical results can be helpful to future map design and map complexity investigation.

Using eye tracking to explore differences in map-based spatial ability between geographers and non-geographers / Weihua Dong in ISPRS International journal of geo-information, vol 7 n° 9 (September 2018)  

Public [article]  inISPRS International journal of geo-information > vol 7 n° 9 (September 2018) Titre : Using eye tracking to explore differences in map-based spatial ability between geographers and non-geographers Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Weihua Dong, Auteur ; Liangyu Zheng, Auteur ; Bing Liu, Auteur ; Liqiu Meng, Auteur Année de publication : 2018 Note générale : Bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Termes IGN] carte topographique [Termes IGN] géolocalisation [Termes IGN] oculométrie [Termes IGN] orientation [Termes IGN] visualisation cartographique [Vedettes matières IGN] Cartologie Résumé : (Auteur) In this article, we use eye-tracking methods to analyze the differences in spatial ability between geographers and non-geographers regarding topographic maps, as reflected in the following three aspects: map-based spatial localization, map-based spatial orientation, and map-based spatial visualization. We recruited 32 students from Beijing Normal University (BNU) and divided them into groups of geographers and non-geographers based on their major. In terms of their spatial localization ability, geographers had shorter response times, higher fixation frequencies, and fewer saccades than non-geographers, and the differences were significant. For their spatial orientation ability, compared to non-geographers, geographers had significantly lower response times, lower fixation counts and fewer saccades as well as significantly higher fixation frequencies. In terms of their spatial visualization ability, geographers’ response times were significantly shorter than those of non-geographers, but there was no significant difference between the two groups in terms of fixation count, fixation frequency or saccade count. We also found that compared to geographers, non-geographers usually spent more time completing these tasks. The results of this study are helpful in improving the map-based spatial ability of users of topographic maps.
