Effective utilization of 3D representation in mobile device for pedestrian navigation aid

Digital (Three-Dimensional) 3D map representation of a city or any location in mobile device provides information about environment to which its represents, sometimes even more details than reality. These ease the problems of reading information added by the paper map which not everyone can read. Un...
