Popis: The presentation of search results in GIS can expose the user to cluttered geographical maps, challenging the identification of relevant information. In order to address this issue, we propose a visualization model supporting interactive information filtering on 2D/3D maps. Our model is based on the introduction of transparency sliders that enable the user to tune the opacity, and thus the emphasis, of data categories in the map. In this way, he or she can focus the maps on the most relevant types of information for the task to be performed. A test with users provided positive results concerning the efficacy of our model.
