title = "How Digital Navigation Tool Influences the Citizens{\textquoteright} Spatial Cognition of Surabaya City, Indonesia",
abstract = "Environmental imageability and legibility is a fundamental component of urban design and relates to how successful citizens navigate the urban environment. In the digital era, the presence of digital navigation-based ICT opens advanced and innovative ways to give directions and traffic information to drivers. Navigation systems such as Google Maps make moving and steering in the city effortless and unwinding, and it also intervenes in the spatial cognition process of the inhabitants. This paper aims to reveal the impact of the digital navigation system on citizens{\textquoteright} mental image of their urban environment by comparing the spatial information that people perceive when they move through urban spaces with or without the intervention of a digital navigation system. The research method used is experimental research with a field trip tactic using a motorcycle and visual experience and narrative interpretation recording to identify urban space elements in Surabaya city. The next step is doing an in-depth interview to reveal the participants{\textquoteright} spatial cognition experiences, which are then compared to the identified urban and architectural elements from the digital recording. The research technique is data triangulation analysis supported by literature reviews and other secondary data. The results showed that the dominant urban elements involved in the spatial cognition process were objects with different scale characteristics, unique shapes, and interactive features. Additionally, the results propose a concept of a comprehensive legible city from the user{\textquoteright}s perspective of the digital navigation system and encourage action on SDGs goal 11, sustainable cities and communities.",
