Exploring Map Views for Enhanced Route Planning
Effective route planning and memorization rely on strong spatial reasoning, crucial for navigating unfamiliar environments using maps. While digital maps are increasingly incorporating 3D visualizations to enhance realism, their actual benefit for route planning and memorization is still debated.
This study compares traditional 2D maps with a novel 2D+3D side-by-side view. Through a web prototype and user study, we evaluate the 2D+3D approach to understand its impact on route planning and memory, seeking insights for better map applications.

Why Map View Effectiveness Matters
In today's world, digital map applications are ubiquitous, with almost everyone relying on them frequently for navigation. Effective route planning and memorization, however, still demand strong spatial reasoning from users.
This study is motivated by the need to understand if and how different map views can better support spatial understanding and navigation for users.

Data from structured observations was transcribed and analyzed using thematic analysis. Themes related to 2D versus 2D+3D map views were identified through a bottom-up approach. This involved generating codes from key quotes in the transcribed observations, followed by a collaborative process of organizing these codes into five overarching themes, categorized under two main sections.

Proposed Key Guidelines
The user study revealed that the 2D+3D map view approach did not significantly improve route planning and memorization compared to the traditional 2D map. Users generally found 2D maps more familiar and easier to use.
However, the 3D view was shown to enhance spatial learning and facilitate the formation of more accurate mental representations of the environment.
These findings underscore the importance of spatial learning and mental models in the design of map-based applications, and key takeaways were derived from the user study analysis.
