    Effects of Urban Form and Navigational Aids on Visitors' Spatial Cognition and Wayfinding Behaviour Author Vaez Eslami, Sima Published 2019-03 Thesis Type Thesis (PhD Doctorate) School School of Environment and Sc DOI https://doi.org/10.25904/1912/698 Copyright Statement The author owns the copyright in this thesis, unless stated otherwise. Downloaded from http://hdl.handle.net/10072/385872 Griffith Research Online https://research-repository.griffith.edu.au Effects of Urban Form and Navigational Aids on Visitors’ Spatial Cognition and Wayfinding Behaviour Sima Vaez Bachelor of Architecture (IAU) Master of Urban Design (ITU) The School of Environment and Science, Cities Research Institute Griffith University Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) Supervisors: A/Prof Matthew Burke Dr. Rongrong Yu Dr. Tooran Alizadeh March, 2019 Abstract Wayfinding is a cognitive activity that is embedded in a complex social and spatial environment. People use their cognitive ability to gather spatial information from their surrounding environment while navigating and finding their way through space. Lynch (1960) argued that there is a relationship between physical perceivable urban elements and urban legibility, and that a strong legible city would help form a strong mental image of the city. In turn, a very imageable city would facilitate urban orientation and wayfinding performance. However, in addition to spatial information other external information like navigational aids and social environment could assist navigators to reach their desired destinations easier. With the ubiquity of “wayshowing” tools such as paper maps, digital maps, smart phone navigators, and local signage, pedestrians are able to locate themselves in an unfamiliar environment and find their desired destinations.

  • Iot Bus Navigation System with Optimized Routing Using Machine Learning
    I.J. Information Technology and Computer Science, 2021, 3, 1-15 Published Online June 2021 in MECS (http://www.mecs-press.org/) DOI: 10.5815/ijitcs.2021.03.01 IoT Bus Navigation System with Optimized Routing using Machine Learning Samer I. Mohamed October University for Modern Sciences and Arts (MSA) E-mail: [email protected] Muhamed Abdelhadi October University for Modern Sciences and Arts (MSA) E-mail: [email protected] Received: 06 October 2020; Accepted: 03 January 2021; Published: 08 June 2021 Abstract: As the population in Egypt is ever expanding, it is reflected in the increase of the number of vehicles on the road. Public transportation is the solution and the number of available buses can cover a significant amount of the population demand. However, the outdated state of the transportation infrastructure, the static nature of the lines and indistinct schedules create a confounding and unappealing user experience which prompts the users to stray to cars for their needs. So, an Intelligent Urban Transportation System (IUTS) is a must. IUTS is a multi-layered system which provides the solution for most of these problems. It operates on different layers starting from a real time vehicle tracking for transparent and efficient management of assets, cash-less ticketing done through RFID cards, vehicle health and diagnostic data for creation of automated maintenance schedules and a friendly interactive driver interface. In this paper an approach based on combining all these technologies is discussed where the hardware component is implemented based on System-on-Chip technology with custom hardware to interface with the vehicle.
