These results lend weight to previous findings that wayfinders do not necessarily perform better with increased realism.
“As measures of landmark and route knowledge, the foundations of cognitive spatial representations, these results lend weight to previous findings that that wayfinders do not necessarily perform better with increased realism (Hegarty et al., 2009; Liao et al., 2017; Plesa & Cartwright, 2008; Wilkening & Fabrikant, 2011).”
From The influence of landmark visualization style on task performance, visual attention, and spatial learning in a real-world navigation task (2024) · cites this paper as Plesa & Cartwright, 2008
Plesa and Cartwright's (2008) study did not directly compare landmark visualization styles, and their findings could have been influenced by non-landmark features such as information overload from a 3D realistic style on the whole map.
“Therefore, they did not directly compare the landmark visualization styles, and their findings could have been influenced by non-landmark features such as the aforementioned information overload that arises from a 3D realistic style on the whole map.”
From The influence of landmark visualization style on task performance, visual attention, and spatial learning in a real-world navigation task (2024) · cites this paper as Plesa & Cartwright, 2008
Adding more visual information to the preferred realistic visualization did not adversely affect navigation efficiency.
“it is reassuring that adding more visual information to the preferred realistic visualization did not adversely affect navigation efficiency, which was a risk highlighted in other studies (Dillemuth, 2005; Liao et al., 2017; Plesa & Cartwright, 2008).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
