“…An in-depth investigation into the advantages of integrating GIS and AR highlights how this combination can address user experience (UX) challenges in systems employing only one of these technologies [14]. Interactive maps and AR bring a new dimension to user interaction; Maps are no longer static representations of geography but dynamic tools that can guide, educate, and entertain, while AR technology enhances GIS by overlaying digital information on the physical world, offering a more immersive way to interact with geospatial data [15].…”

This chapter delves into the dynamic realm of gamification applied to real-world scenarios, with a specific focus on the integration of geographic information systems (GIS) and augmented reality (AR). By examining case studies and current research, the potential of combining game design principles with interactive technologies is shown to create immersive and interactive experiences that enhance user engagement in complex problems across various domains such as education, health, and smart government. The large-scale adoption of interactive technologies underscores the importance of ethical considerations, inclusivity, and the potential for these technologies to foster a more connected and informed society. The chapter aims to inspire further research and practical applications in the field, focusing on the transformative power of combining gamification with GIS and AR in real-world settings.

“…The recent turn has led to a wider uptake in society such as in civil defense, aviation, emergency preparedness and evacuation planning, and nearly all educational disciplines as well as in the private sector. In Geographic Information Science (GIScience) and related domains, XR concepts and technologies present unique opportunities to create spatial experiences in the ways humans interact with their environments and acquire spatial knowledge [1][2][3], a shift that GIScience scholars had already envisioned [4,5] 20 years ago. With recent developments in software, spatial computing [6,7] has emerged as a powerful paradigm enabling citizens with smartphones to map their environment in real time, in 3D, and in high fidelity.…”

This manuscript identifies and documents unsolved problems and research challenges in the extended reality (XR) domain (i.e., virtual (VR), augmented (AR), and mixed reality (MR)). The manuscript is structured to include technology, design, and human factor perspectives. The text is visualization/display-focused, that is, other modalities such as audio, haptic, smell, and touch, while important for XR, are beyond the scope of this paper. We further narrow our focus to mainly geospatial research, with necessary deviations to other domains where these technologies are widely researched. The main objective of the study is to provide an overview of broader research challenges and directions in XR, especially in spatial sciences. Aside from the research challenges identified based on a comprehensive literature review, we provide case studies with original results from our own studies in each section as examples to demonstrate the relevance of the challenges in the current research. We believe that this paper will be of relevance to anyone who has scientific interest in extended reality, and/or uses these systems in their research.
