Abstract

L'invention concerne un système d'informations d'emplacement, qui comprend un dispositif de mémoire conçu pour mémoriser des données de modèle indiquant un modèle tridimensionnel (3D) d'un emplacement et au moins des données de point d'intérêt (POI) indiquant un POI associé à l'emplacement. Le POI est affiché si sa position est visible dans une zone de vue. Un dispositif de restitution restitue une image qui indique une zone de vue actuelle du modèle 3D et de l'identifiant de POI, de telle sorte que le POI est visible dans la zone de vue actuelle. Une interface utilisateur facilite la sélection par un utilisateur de l'identifiant de POI qui, lorsqu'il est sélectionné, restitue des informations de contenu associées au POI sélectionné pour un affichage par l'interface utilisateur.
