Navigation assumptions challenged – Spatialists – geospatial news

A new study challenges the assumption that pedestrians wish for turn-by-turn navigation, showing many prefer a simple route preview, without losing performance or spatial awareness. Paired with contrasting ideas from 3D navigation design, it’s a reminder that the “right” level of guidance depends less on technology and more on context and user needs.

Just seen post about eye tracking and #Wayfinding- seeing what signs and touchpoints that people see and react to. Problem can be tho that people follow people (the queue, the crowd, the ‘people like us’) and that can be lost. The data you assume in test and seek out may not be the point.

"Find some topic you care about. Just one. Resist the temptation to have takes on everything else. Let the discourse rage without you while you spend weeks or months actually understanding something ... Change your mind when you find you were wrong. And when you finally have something to say, something you’ve actually earned through careful thought rather than absorbed from the tribal zeitgeist, say it clearly and then step back." —Joan Westenberg
