The Future of Countryside Interpretation?

This is augmented reality and it will change the way we look at the countryside. Up until now digital interpretation relied on an awkward mix of software and hardware that never quite worked. The development of smart phones like the iPhone has enabled the software and hardware to come together; simplexity. Heads up display reveal what you're looking at, pan your phone around and the information changes to your new view. A whole raft of information and interpretation can now be accessed by people on their terms. If they want to explore an uncluttered landscape they simply turn their phone off. No more interpretation panels?
