Abstract: The study of navigation behaviour and the associated brain dynamics have been a focus increasing research over the last decades. Coinciding with this has been an increased focus on a more ecological understanding of cognition. Here we review recent research seeking to provide a more naturalistic, ecological understanding of human navigation behaviour and brain dynamics. Research in this area falls into four categories: testing navigation in real-world environments, analysis of data collected from tracking individuals during daily life, navigation in simulated or virtual environments mimicking the real-world, and mobile brain recording methods. Combining these different approaches to understand the neural basis of navigation shows excellent promise. We conclude with future directions for this research area.
