We report on a study examining the generation of noun phrases within a spoken dialog agent for a navigation domain. The task is to provide real-time instructions that direct the user to move between a series of destinations within a large interior space. A subtask within sentence planning is determining what form to choose for noun phrases. This choice is driven by both the discourse history and spatial context features derived from the direction-follower's position, e.g. his view angle, distance from the target referent and the number of similar items in view. The algorithm was developed as a decision tree and its output was evaluated by a group of human judges who rated 62.6% of the expressions generated by the system to be as good as or better than the language originally produced by human dialog partners.
