Mobility, including navigation and wayfinding, is a basic human requirement for survival. For thousands of years maps have played a significant role for human mobility and survival. Increasing reliance on digital GNSS-enabled navigation assistance, however, is impacting human attentional resources and is limiting our innate cognitive spatial abilities. To mitigate human de-skilling, a neuroadaptive (mobile) cartographic research frontier is proposed and first steps towards creating well-designed mobile geographic information displays (mGIDs) that not only respond to navigators' cognitive load and visuo-spatial attentional resources during navigation in real-time but are also able to scaffold spatial learning while still maintaining navigation efficiency. This in turn, will help humans to remain as independent from geoinformation technology, as desired.
移动性,包括导航和路径寻找,是人类生存的一项基本需求。数千年来,地图在人类的移动性和生存方面发挥了重要作用。然而,对基于全球导航卫星系统(GNSS)的数字导航辅助的日益依赖,正在影响人类的注意力资源,并限制我们天生的认知空间能力。为了减轻人类技能退化,提出了一个神经自适应(移动)制图研究前沿,并朝着创建精心设计的移动地理信息显示器(mGID)迈出了第一步,这种显示器不仅能在导航过程中实时响应导航者的认知负荷和视觉空间注意力资源,还能在保持导航效率的同时支持空间学习。反过来,这将有助于人类根据需要尽可能独立于地理信息技术。
