Example stimuli from McKenzie et al. (2016) showing circular semi-transparent overlays used by Google Maps to indicate the uncertainty of the users’ location. Participants compared two versions of these visualizations and determined which represented the most accurate positional location. Redrawn from “Assessing the effectiveness of different visualizations for judgments of positional uncertainty” by G. McKenzie, M. Hegarty, T. Barrett, and M. Goodchild. 2016, International Journal of Geographical Information Science, 30(2), 221–239
