Abstract

Augmented Reality (AR) is a technology that enhances a person’s sensory perception by overlaying virtual objects in the user’s immediate surroundings. Furthermore, with the development of technologies, devices such as smartphones and head-mounted displays are being launched and are expanding the AR technology application sectors from research labs to a wide range of domains. On the other hand, Geospatial Information System (GIS) is capable of dealing with geospatial information, so it can be beneficial in most AR systems mainly because those systems are connected to location and information related to locations. The ultimate integrated solution could be beneficial for Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). This paper investigates the combination of AR and GIS. Specifically, it studies the advantages of integration to address the challenges available in systems employing merely one of the technologies. The presented findings would assist researchers in future studies on utilizing GIS and AR simultaneously by giving an overview of the current applications and challenges.
