Abstract
During pedestrian navigation in outdoor urban environments we often utilize assistance systems to support decision-making. These systems help wayfinders by providing relevant information withing the context of their surroundings, e.g., landmark-based instructions of the type "turn left at the church". Next to the instruction type and content, also the timing of the instruction must be considered in order to facilitate the wayfinding process. In this work we present our findings concerning the user and environmental factors that have an impact on the timing of instructions. We applied a survival analysis on data collected through an experiment in a realistic virtual environment in order to analyze the expected distance to the decision point until instructions are needed. The presented results can be used by navigation systems for instruction timing based on the characteristics of the current wayfinder and environment.
