摘要
A user interface (e.g. to a mobile device) integrates temporal and geographic information in an intimate and flexible manner. A view engine presents views of geographic information (such as points of origin, destinations, preferred/alternative routes) closely linked with associated time information (such as scheduled delivery times, current actual time, estimated transit times etc.). As a user manipulates an input (e.g. a timebar) to move forward and backward in time, the interface adjusts correspondingly to display geographic information relevant to the selected time. Conversely, as a user manipulates geographic information (e.g. a map), the interface may adjust correspondingly to display relevant temporal information. Time information may be afforded by the interface to the user through the use of color and/or movement of displayed items. As an aid to use, the interface may further include an input dedicated to returning the user to the present time and geographical location display.
