摘要
The Virtual Reality (VR) technology offers new possibilities to implement Geographical Information Systems (GIS), allowing the user to visualize and interact with map interfaces in more natural and immersive way. Moreover, they can provide the user with a wide field of view similar to the one obtained when using large displays. In this paper, we present a VR application that allows the user to display and interact with a GIS map using different types of interaction modalities.
