| Summary: | Autonomous and intuitive displacement is a parameter to verify the potential of information for spatial orientation in a built environment. Being oriented implies not getting lost on the route linked to a task, both in known or unknown environments. This topic is a maximum measurement of a user's behavior in their displacement. First, some main concepts will be presented, proposing some indicators for users’observation in the built environment. After that, a case study will be presented, using the indicators that are proposed based on the task, routes, strategies, and user behavior for a data collection. As a result, this data was checked with the Visibility Index (VI) method. |
