Dear Researchers,
Nowadays, we see a variety of maps in web applications, the main purpose of which is one or two precise layers, and the other layers of the map are not very precise and are more intended to help better understand the map. For example, navigation apps often pay close attention to access routes, and other layers of the screen are just to create a natural sense of the real world.
Do you know of documents that can refer to and cite?
thank you very much for your time
Sincerely, Ali Madad
