Visibility matters during wayfinding in the vertical
Scientific Reports, 2021 Visibility is the degree to which different parts of the environment can be observed from a given vantage point. In the absence of previous familiarity or signage, the visibility of key elements in a multilevel environment (e.g., the entrance, exit, or ...
