Description
There has been an increasing growth in the use of GIS, the amount of spatial data available, and the relative accessibility to GIS tools to non-expert users. There have also been considerable advancements in the augmented reality/mixed reality (AR/MR) tools and capabilities. In this research, we analyze the potential benefits of AR/MR-enabled GIS and we develop a framework of the affordances provided by combining those technologies vis-Ã -vis the demands and challenges of effective disaster response.

A Framework of AR-Enabled GIS Affordances for Disaster Response
There has been an increasing growth in the use of GIS, the amount of spatial data available, and the relative accessibility to GIS tools to non-expert users.
