Abstract
A gps-enabled GIS acting as a mobile traveller information system is described. In general terms the objective of the system is to present attribute information of the surroundings to a traveller in motion. It is done automatically and in accordance with the speed and direction taken relative to objects represented in the GIS. The system specification is based on the assumption that the user does not handle the system interactively by clicking on the map (e.g. because he or she is engaged in driving) and furthermore that a stream of relevant information about the surroundings - adapting to the movements of the user - should enhance the travel experience by providing interesting knowledge within a user-specified domain.
