Background
You-Are-Here (YAH) maps are vital tools for navigation inside unfamiliar environments.
How can we assess the influence of the placement of YAH maps on wayfinding in buildings?

Research Objectives
Analyze Library Environment Visibility Connectivity Layout Complexity
Add map placement to analysis to assess areas of map influence Conduct behavioral experiments to assess human wayfinding
performance in these environments

Analysis of Library Environment
Visibility Analysisusing Depthmap Software.
This is the output of a visibility graph analysis.

Analysis of Library Environment
Axial maps showing connectivity.
Areas of higher visibilityhave higher connectivity.

Analysis of Library Environment
Layout Complexity was calculatedusing Inter-Connection Density (ICD).
ICD is a global measure of a floor’s overall layout complexity.

Behavioral Experiments
24 students who had never visited the campus library before and 28 librarians were asked to find a book in each of the library environments.
Their paths were recorded via glasses with an attached camera.

Findings
Good! -Small area covered per map
-Signage used to supplement YAH maps-High visibility and connectivity-Lower Inter-Connection Density
Novice wayfinding similar to expert wayfinding
Bad!-Large area covered per map-Low visibility and connectivity-High Inter-Connection Density
Distinct difference between novice wayfinding and expert wayfinding

Suggested
Adding more YAH maps along traveled routes may improve novice wayfinding inside the Central Stacks.
