Accompanying maps can make the narratives even more accessible. As work in computer science has begun to generate stories from low-level event/activity data, there is a need for systems that complement these tools to generate maps illustrating spatial components of these stories. While traditional maps display static spatial relationships, story maps need to not only dynamically display relationships based on the flow of the story but also display character perceptions and intentions. In this work, we study cartographic illustrations of historical battles to design a map generation system for reports produced from a multiplayer battle game log. We then create a story and ask viewers to describe mapped events and rate their own descriptions relative to intended interpretations. Some viewers received training prior to seeing the story, which was shown to be effective, though training may have been unnecessary for certain map types. Self-rating correlated highly with expert ratings, revealing an efficient proxy for expert analysis of map interpretability, a shortcut for determining if training is needed for story-telling maps or other novel visualisation techniques. The study's semantic questions and feedback solicitation demonstrate a process for identifying user-centric improvements to story-telling map design.}, number={4}, journal={BEHAVIOUR & INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY}, author={Tateosian, Laura and Glatz, Michelle and Shukunobe, Makiko}, year={2020}, month={Apr}, pages={391–413} }

Mapped place names provide vital geographical, economic, historical, political, and cultural context for the text. Online sources such as news articles, travel logs, and blogs frequently refer to geographic locations, but often these are not mapped. When a map is provided, the reader is still responsible for matching references in the text with map positions. As they read a place name within the text, readers must locate its map position, then find their place again in the text to resume reading, and repeat this for each toponym. We propose a gaze-based reading and dynamic geographic information system (GazeGIS) which uses eye tracking and geoparsing to enable a more cohesive reading experience by dynamically mapping locations just as they are encountered within the text. We developed a prototype GazeGIS application and demonstrated its application to several narrative passages. We conducted a study in which participants read text passages using the system and evaluated their experience. We also explored an application for intelligence analysis and discuss how experts in this domain envision its use. Layman and intelligence expert evaluations indicate a positive reception for this new reading paradigm. This could change the way we read online news and e-books, the way school children study political science and geography, the way officers study military history, the way intelligence analysts consume reports, and the way we plan our next vacation.}, journal={EYE TRACKING AND VISUALIZATION: FOUNDATIONS, TECHNIQUES, AND APPLICATIONS, ETVIS 2015}, author={Tateosian, Laura G. and Glatz, Michelle and Shukunobe, Makiko and Chopra, Pankaj}, year={2017}, pages={129–147} }
