Abstract: This thesis presents an investigation on effective design of mobile pedestrian navigation systems by conducting three field study experiments. It looked into the aspects of personalisation, navigation efficiency, user interactions, and navigation performance, in order to propose a set of design guidelines that can be used for future studies and developments.
Current marine navigation radars are capable of high-resolution imagery of marine ice but are not able to classify the marine ice. Classifying marine ice means identifying the ice as first-year ice, multi-year ice or glacier ice. The latter two ice types are as hard as concrete and capable of...
