When using the proposed interface the geospatial data can be explored in immersive virtual environments (VEs) using stereoscopic visualization on a head-mounted display (HMD). When using certain tracking approaches the entire body can be tracked in order to support natural traveling by real walking. Moreover, intuitive devices are provided for both-handed interaction to complete the navigation process. We introduce the setup as well as corresponding interaction concepts.
