当前，小型显示器作为地理信息的接口变得重要。更具体地说，移动位置感知设备（例如配备了全球定位系统的手机）越来越多地用于移动寻路辅助。但是他们的约束显示太小，无法在没有越来越多的用户努力的情况下重现常规地图。例如，他们必须放大和缩小，并滚动浏览地图，以了解路线所涉及实体的详细信息和配置关系。信息的分裂不仅是不便的，而且实际上会影响给定信息的认知处理，并降低援助的有效性。攻击此问题的一种方法是根据用户的个人知识量身定制地图。如果援助系统知道用户知道的地点和路径，则可以根据以下信息生成地图：用户拥有良好知识的路线的那些部分可以以较少的细节显示，没有或没有知识的部分可以强调。但是，地图相对于以前的知识的转换是一个尚未开发的字段，需要有关地图生成的新基本考虑。在这项工作中，我们分析了典型的空间配置，地理垂直性和辅助方案。我们展示了针对小型显示制图的个性化地图的第一型原型。
Small displays are currently gaining importance as interfaces for geographic information. More specifically, mobile position-aware devices, such as mobile phones equipped with globally positioning system, are increasingly used for mobile wayfinding assistance. But their constrained displays are too small to reproduce conventional maps without an increasing effort for the user. For example, they have to zoom in and out, and to scroll through the map to understand the details and configurational relationships of the involved entities of a route. This fragmentation of the information is not just inconvenient, but actually affects the cognitive processing of the given information and lowers the effectiveness of the assistance. One way to attack this problem is to tailor maps to the individual knowledge of a user. If an assistance system knows about the places and paths a user knows, it can generate maps according to this information: those parts of a route, which the user has good knowledge of, can be displayed with less detail and parts with no or little knowledge can be emphasised. However, the transformation of maps with respect to previous knowledge is a yet unexplored field and requires new and basic considerations about map generation. In this work, we analyse prototypical spatial configurations, geographic veridicality and assistance scenarios. We demonstrate first prototypes of personalised maps for small display cartography.
