Given the number of mapping methods used in thematic cartography, the question arises of what extent the utilized method influences a user’s map use level. For this reason, research has been undertaken with 392 students in the 17–20 age group with the aim of identifying and clarifying the influence of the mapping methods used (specifically choropleth mapping, diagram mapping, qualitative and quantitative line symbols, and area shading). The results have shown that the students were less successful with maps that used quantitative mapping methods than with maps using qualitative or both qualitative and quantitative mapping methods. The differences were most significant in the case of the cognitively demanding map interpretation skill, especially due to the students’ problematic understanding of the very essence of the quantitative methods. The different natures of the tested mapping methods also probably accounted for the identification of various factors explaining the differences in the levels of the work with the given thematic maps among the individual tested students.

The effects of visual realism, spatial abilities, and competition on performance in map-based route learning in men / Arzu Çöltekin in Cartography and Geographic Information Science, Vol 45 n° 4 (July 2018)  

Public [article]  inCartography and Geographic Information Science > Vol 45 n° 4 (July 2018) . - pp 339 - 353 Titre : The effects of visual realism, spatial abilities, and competition on performance in map-based route learning in men Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Arzu Çöltekin, Auteur ; Rebecca Francelet ; Kai-Florian Richter, Auteur ; John Thoresen, Auteur ; Sara Irina Fabrikant, Auteur Année de publication : 2018 Article en page(s) : pp 339 - 353 Note générale : Bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Termes descripteurs IGN] carte routière [Termes descripteurs IGN] lecture de carte [Termes descripteurs IGN] rendu réaliste [Termes descripteurs IGN] représentation spatiale [Termes descripteurs IGN] spatiocarte [Termes descripteurs IGN] test de performance [Termes descripteurs IGN] utilisateur civil [Vedettes matières IGN] Cartologie Résumé : (Auteur) We report on how visual realism might influence map-based route learning performance in a controlled laboratory experiment with 104 male participants in a competitive context. Using animations of a dot moving through routes of interest, we find that participants recall the routes more accurately with abstract road maps than with more realistic satellite maps. We also find that, irrespective of visual realism, participants with higher spatial abilities (high-spatial participants) are more accurate in memorizing map-based routes than participants with lower spatial abilities (low-spatial participants). On the other hand, added visual realism limits high-spatial participants in their route recall speed, while it seems not to influence the recall speed of low-spatial participants. Competition affects participants’ overall confidence positively, but does not affect their route recall performance neither in terms of accuracy nor speed. With this study, we provide further empirical evidence demonstrating that it is important to choose the appropriate map type considering task characteristics and spatial abilities. While satellite maps might be perceived as more fun to use, or visually more attractive than road maps, they also require more cognitive resources for many map-based tasks, which is true even for high-spatial users.

Augmented reality and maps : new possibilities for engaging with geographic data / Gabriel Henrique de Almeida Pereira in Cartographic journal (the), Vol 54 n° 4 (November 2017)

However, the impact of this new technology in terms of acceptance, motivation and improvement of the learning process has still not been sufficiently explored. This study aims to assess the contribution of an AR system for map reading and for improving users’ understanding of geographic data. Landscape and census data from New Zealand were used to evaluate the performance of an AR system in an experiment involving 60 participants. Differences in the participants’ backgrounds were reflected in the way they completed the task for both printed maps and the AR system and 90% of the participants preferred to work with the AR system rather than with traditional printed maps. Users that had previous experience of the geographical dataset provided performed the task better using only the printed maps, while those without that experience performed better with the AR system.

An empirical evaluation of three elevation change symbolization methods along routes in bicycle maps / Annina Brügger in Cartography and Geographic Information Science, Vol 44 n° 5 (September 2017)

We detail an empirical study in which we comparatively evaluated three linear symbolization types (color hue, color-coded arrows, and elevation profiles) to depict elevation change in bicycle maps for two common bicycle route planning tasks: relative height detection and slope identification. Participants performed most accurately with the color-coded arrows for relative height detection tasks, whereas symbolization did not significantly influence map-use performance for slope identification. Participants preferred the elevation profile, in spite of their lowest performance with this method overall. Our rare empirical findings offer much needed new insights into the function and appropriateness of common elevation symbolization methods, specifically to identify elevation change in bicycle route planning tasks in urban areas where map display real estate is already very limited.

Controllability matters : The user experience of adaptive maps / Peter Kiefer in Geoinformatica [en ligne], vol 21 n° 3 (July - September 2017)  

Public [article]  inGeoinformatica [en ligne] > vol 21 n° 3 (July - September 2017) . - pp 619 - 641 Titre : Controllability matters : The user experience of adaptive maps Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Peter Kiefer, Auteur ; Ioannis Giannopoulos, Auteur ; Vasileios Athanasios Anagnostopoulos, Auteur ; et al., Auteur Année de publication : 2017 Article en page(s) : pp 619 - 641 Note générale : Bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Termes descripteurs IGN] cartologie [Termes descripteurs IGN] interface graphique [Termes descripteurs IGN] lecture de carte [Termes descripteurs IGN] utilisateur civil [Vedettes matières IGN] Géovisualisation Résumé : (Auteur) Adaptive map interfaces have the potential of increasing usability by providing more task dependent and personalized support. It is unclear, however, how map adaptation must be designed to avoid a loss of control, transparency, and predictability. This article investigates the user experience of adaptive map interfaces in the context of gaze-based activity recognition. In a Wizard of Oz experiment we study two adaptive map interfaces differing in the degree of controllability and compare them to a non-adaptive map interface. Adaptive interfaces were found to cause higher user experience and lower perceived cognitive workload than the non-adaptive interface. Among the adaptive interfaces, users clearly preferred the condition with higher controllability. Results from structured interviews reveal that participants dislike being interrupted in their spatial cognitive processes by a sudden adaptation of the map content. Our results suggest that adaptive map interfaces should provide their users with control at what time an adaptation will be performed.
