ABSTRACT="The importance of spatial and geo-based information has increased over the
last few years. The most prevalent example of this kind of information is
points of interest (POI) like hotels, restaurants, gas stations, etc. As
cars are made for individual transportation, interacting with geo-based
information via the In-vehicle Information System (IVIS) should be
possible. At present, state-of-the-art IVIS only permit a list based or
center based selection on the map, which makes it difficult to handle a
high closeness of geo-based data. In this paper, we present alternative
approaches for selecting geo-based data with a multifunctional controller.
In our work, visual cues help users predict the selection order. An
explorative user study showed potential advantages of our concepts."
