| contents | Street-level visual appearances play an important role in studying social systems, such as understanding the built environment, driving routes, and associated social and economic factors. It has not been integrated into a typical geographical visualization interface (e.g., map services) for planning driving routes. In this paper, we study this new visualization task with several new contributions. First, we experiment with a set of AI techniques and propose a solution of using semantic latent vectors for quantifying visual appearance features. Second, we calculate image similarities among a large set of street-view images and then discover spatial imagery patterns. Third, we integrate these discovered patterns into driving route planners with new visualization techniques. Finally, we present VivaRoutes, an interactive visualization prototype, to show how visualizations leveraged with these discovered patterns can help users effectively and interactively explore multiple routes. Furthermore, we conducted a user study to assess the usefulness and utility of VivaRoutes. |
