Extracted Abstract:

—The increasing power and decreasing size of mobile devices and tablets provide a compelling new platform for mobile field geographic information system (GIS) operations with geospatial datasets. As these data sets become increasingly larger and more dynamic, it introduces the need for real time analysis and data collection in the field. Successful field research in the digital age requires computing power, functionality, and mobility. Location aware mobile computing devices enable new methods of knowledge synthesis by merging physical and virtual data layers. The geospatial dataset in this study is both large in scale and quickly transforms on a daily basis, requiring innovative strategies for effective application. This paper presents the novel combination of mobile tablets, GIS, and geospatial data to direct ground exploration and discovery of cultural heritage sites in Mongolia.Keywords—Geographic Information Systems, mo- bile computing, geovisualization, spatio-temporal dataGeographic Information Systems, mobile computing, geovisualization, spatio- temporal data, I.

Level 1: Include/Exclude

  • Papers must discuss situated information visualization* (by Willet et al.) in the application domain of CH.
    *A situated data representation is a data representation whose physical presentation is located close to the data’s physical referent(s).
    *A situated visualization is a situated data representation for which the presentation is purely visual – and is typically displayed on a screen.
  • Representation must include abstract data (e.g., metadata).
  • Papers focused solely on digital reconstruction without information visualization aspects are excluded.
  • Posters and workshop papers are excluded to focus on mature research contributions.
