Abstract

Augmented reality and mobile pedestrian navigation are trends in mobile devices that, as a whole, are what mobile augmented reality is. This technology has great potential for the visualisation of content about heritage. Considering the above and the quality of the heritage elements, it is possible to characterise these aspects territorially, allowing for the analysis of location sensors. These new spatial aspects complement the presentation of information on these resources. In this way, by incorporating territorial indicators of different kinds, it is possible to classify and determine areas with specific characteristics and relate them to particular heritage values. In this research, we worked with a specific sector of the city of Santiago de Chile and its heritage buildings. Through the analysis of its qualities and the incorporation of the location of the devices, it was possible to characterise and territorially classify the behaviour of users in consideration of their displacement and heritage quality. © 2025 by the authors.
