A New Approach for Schematics for Public Transport Spider Maps
| Nome: | Descrição: | Tamanho: | Formato: | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| This research aims to create a new approach for spider maps production that results in a fast and automatic method having as input only network location data. Schematization task is commonly done by hand or by purely graphics software. This is a difficult and time consuming task that also needs a skilled map designer, which results in an expensive outcome. A configurable force-directed algorithm allows fast creation of eyepleasing schematic maps, avoiding labor-intensive manual arrangement. In the other hand, different sets of design rules and constraints may be used to quickly generate alternatives, and allow the configuration of a distinctive graphic style. This document presents some of the rules and constraints that may be used to output a map that meets certain criteria in order to be used as a spider map in transportation systems. We present results with real public transport network datasets, and discuss possible evaluation criteria. The present work introduces a new set of experimental validations that confirm the previous research but also leading to new open issues for future work. | 462.36 KB | Adobe PDF |

This research aims to create a new approach for spider maps production that results in a fast and automatic method having as input only network location data.

A configurable force-directed algorithm allows fast creation of eyepleasing schematic maps, avoiding labor-intensive manual arrangement.

We present results with real public transport network datasets, and discuss possible evaluation criteria.
