One step closer to the day when we can "download" a map of a location and intuitively know where things are.

Would this mapping apply to other spatial applications? Does the brain work similarly when interacting with a physical, 3-dimensional puzzle, for instance?

There was an article in Science on 3D space related to this. http://www.sciencemag.org/content/340/6130/367 http://knowingneurons.com/2014/05/29/navigating-a-3d-world/

Neat! I could practically imagine those cells working like a bloom filter for more complex positioning.
