Abstract
An approach is provided for providing an interactive perspective-based point of interest layout in an augmented reality view. The layout platform determines at least one zoom level for rendering of one or more representations of one or more items in a perspective-based display based, at least in part, on at least one push interaction or at least one pull interaction in the perspective-based display. The layout platform causes, at least in part, a rendering of the one or more representations based, at least in part, on the at least one zoom level.
Claims20
A method comprising:
- initiating, by an apparatus, a rendering on a user interface of an initial representation of a plurality of points of interest within a field of view of a perspective-based display when viewing from a geographic location of the perspective-based display;
- determining, by the apparatus, a plurality of zoom levels on the perspective-based display, wherein each of the zoom levels corresponds to a respective augmented granularity level of size and glyph information details as well as a respective one of a plurality of geographic distance ranges from the geographic location of the perspective-based display;
- grouping, by the apparatus, the plurality of points of interest in to a plurality of groups of points of interest based on the geographic distance ranges;
- in response to at least one pull interaction on the user interface, initiating, by the apparatus, a pulling-in of one or more representations of one or more of the points of interest that are shown in a farther zoom level in the initial representation from a farther distance range into a closer distance range with respect to the perspective-based display, by transitioning the one or more representations into a closer zoom level, while maintaining the zoom level of other ones of the points of interest that are not pulled to a different distance range in a subsequent representation of the perspective-based display.

An apparatus comprising:
- at least one processor;
- and
- at least one memory including computer program code for one or more programs,
- the at least one memory and the computer program code configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus to perform at least the following,
- initiate a rendering on a user interface of an initial representation of a plurality of points of interest within a field of view of a perspective-based display when viewing from a geographic location of the perspective-based display;
- determine a plurality of zoom levels on the perspective-based display, wherein each of the zoom levels corresponds to a respective augmented granularity level of size and glyph information details as well as a respective one of a plurality of geographic distance ranges from the geographic location of the perspective-based display;
- group the plurality of points of interest in to a plurality of groups of points of interest based on the geographic distance ranges;
- in response to at least one pull interaction on the user interface, initiate a pulling-in of one or more representations of one or more of the points of interest that are shown in a farther zoom level in the initial representation from a farther distance range into a closer distance range with respect to the perspective-based display, by transitioning the one or more representations into a closer zoom level, while maintaining the zoom level of other ones of the points of interest that are not pulled to a different distance range in a subsequent representation of the perspective-based display.
