基于空间认知的虚拟地理环境研究

摘要

Virtual reality technology matures,and changes the performance means of map so that people at home can experience the world as a whole,so humanity＇s understanding of the world entered a new stage.In this paper,we begin with the definition of virtual reality,introduce the basis of virtual reality-spatial cognitive theory,analyze the virtual reality and theory of the relationship between spatial cognition and interaction,as well as in virtual reality applications in cartography,and point out some of the bottlenecks during this stage of the virtual geographic environments.%虚拟现实技术逐渐成熟,改变了地图的表现手段,使人们在家中就能体验到整个世界,使人类对于世界的认识进入了一个崭新的阶段。本文从虚拟现实定义出发,介绍了虚拟现实的基础———空间认知理论,分析了虚拟现实与空间认知理论的关系和相互作用以及虚拟现实在地图学中的应用,并指出现阶段模拟虚拟地理环境下的一些瓶颈问题。
