The work described in this thesis deals with two particular issues relating to the effective delivery of Architectural information that includes textual, 2D graphics and 3D graphic information to small mobile digital devices on location. These issues were investigated, and a solution was suggested in this thesis as part of an ongoing research project, 'City in the Palm of your Hand', that is being applied in the city of Liverpool, UK. The outcomes have broader implications for other applications of the theories and technologies related to pedestrian guides.
