Abstract

We look at how analog and digital maps can be augmented with context related information. In the analog case we use Augmented Reality to superimpose virtual objects onto the view of a printed map. For user friendliness we use standard mobile phone for Augmented Reality. To do this we have ported the ARToolkit to Symbian. We have implemented two case studies where printed maps are augmented with traffic-data by attaching markers to them.
