Augmented reality (AR) is a field of computer research which deals with the combination of real-world and computer-generated data (see definition at Wikipedia).
The application fields of augmented reality for spatial problems are very broad. The contain navigation, enviromental planning, etc. Object recognition is here also an issue. Currently many GI researchers are dealing with the topic of augmented maps. Some interesting papers are for example:
- Augmented Maps
- Localisation and Interaction for Augmented Maps
- Clarification Dialogues in Human-Augmented Mapping
- Overlaying Paper Maps with Digital Information Services for Tourists
