Abstract
Advances in dynamic map interfaces have turned maps into interactive media. These dynamic interfaces respond to users’ operations in real time, and present fully visualized geographic information. However, the current systems have only reacted to explicitly specified user intentions. For example, users have been required to elaborately specify visible layers to fully utilize a map interface. In contrast, we propose a method of adjusting the way a map interface is presented by estimating the users’ intentions based on their operation history. By reducing their operations, the system facilitates the use of maps especially for novices. It is especially effective in online or mobile map interfaces, where it is difficult to adjust the presentation of the map interface, due to the limited bandwidth and the size of the interface. This paper specifically focuses on the trajectory, which is a series of panning operations, and discusses our inference of users’ implicit intentions.
