摘要:Paper maps and mobile electronic devices have complementary strengths and shortcomings in outdoor use. In many scenarios like small craft sailing or cross-country trekking a complete replacements of maps is neither useful nor desirable. Paper maps are fail- safe, relatively cheap, offer superior resolution and provide large scale overview. In uses like open-water sailing it is therefore mandatory to carry adequate maps/charts. GPS based mobile devices, on the other hand, offer useful features like automatic positioning and plotting, real-time information update and dynamic adaptation to user requirements. While paper maps are now commonly used in combination with mobile GPS devices there is no meaningful integration between the two and the combined use leads to a number of interaction problems and potential safety issues. In this paper we explore the design space of augmented paper maps in which maps are augmented with additional functionality through a mobile device to achieve a meaningful integration between device and map that combines their respective strengths
