The quality of such maps is affected by several factors, such as (a) the matching between the features on images and the graphic symbols from maps, (b) the complexity of background images, and (c) the representation of graphic and text symbols on the images. This project deals with the first issue. The current solution is that the accuracy of images should satisfy the accuracy standard of maps. However, images with different resolutions can satisfy the standard for a specific map scale. This may lead to a situation in which the levels of detail (LoD) in images may not match the complexity of map features although the planimetric accuracy is matched. To solve this problem, we developed a complexity-based matching between the image resolution and map scale. More precisely, the matching is based on the complexity of line features. Experimental evaluations were conducted in 15 representative areas in Hong Kong using maps at seven scales and eight image resolutions. Results show that the proposed complexity-based method is capable of obtaining good matching between image resolution and map scale in terms of both accuracy and users’ preference.

Developing reliably distinguishable color schemes for legends of natural resource taxonomy-based maps / Virgil Vlad in Cartography and Geographic Information Science, Vol 48 n° 5 (September 2021)

The existing methods of color selection for map legends are based on the designer subjectivity, ensuring schemes having few colors. An analysis of the modeling and management of colors in digital applications has led to define an algorithm to calculate an objective colorimetric measure of color difference – “DE*ab” – based on the perceptually uniform color model CIELAB. The proposed method consists of a set of specific rules for developing hierarchically structured color schemes and a specific procedure for ensuring selection of a large number of reliably distinguishable colors, based on a color difference threshold. The accuracy of color reproduction in printing processes is also taken into account. The method has been applied to develop a standard of colors for soil maps. It contains 63 colors and has been used for developing a soil map having 41 standard colors. A user test of the method results proved that thresholds of 10 DE*ab units and 15 DE*ab units ensure obtaining acceptably distinguishable colors for displaying/printing maps by using high-quality, respectively, current devices. Three datasets that support the research are given.

Searching for an optimal hexagonal shaped enumeration unit size for effective spatial pattern recognition in choropleth maps / Izabela Karsznia in ISPRS International journal of geo-information, vol 10 n° 9 (September 2021)  

Public [article]  inISPRS International journal of geo-information > vol 10 n° 9 (September 2021) . - n° 576 Titre : Searching for an optimal hexagonal shaped enumeration unit size for effective spatial pattern recognition in choropleth maps Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Izabela Karsznia, Auteur ; Izabela Golebiowska, Auteur ; Jolanta Korycka-Skorupa, Auteur ; et al., Auteur Année de publication : 2021 Article en page(s) : n° 576 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Termes IGN] analyse spatiale [Termes IGN] carte choroplèthe [Termes IGN] carte thématique [Termes IGN] échelle cartographique [Termes IGN] enquête [Termes IGN] généralisation [Termes IGN] lecture de carte [Termes IGN] reconnaissance de formes [Termes IGN] répartition géographique [Termes IGN] représentation cartographique [Termes IGN] utilisateur [Termes IGN] visualisation cartographique Résumé : (auteur) Thoughtful consideration of the enumeration unit size in choropleth map design is important to ensure the correct communication of spatial information. However, the enumeration unit size and its influence on pattern conveying in choropleth maps have not yet been the subject of in-depth empirical studies. This research aims to address this gap. We focused on the issue concerning whether the ability to recognize spatial patterns on an Equal Area Unit Map is related to the hexagonal enumeration unit size, defined by the number of pixels. The aim is to indicate the range of the enumeration unit sizes, namely, at what point the upper and lower borders of the range where the spatial patterns start, and where the end is visible and recognizable by users. To address this problem, we conducted an empirical study with 488 users. The results show that the enumeration unit size has an impact on the users’ spatial pattern recognition abilities. Choropleth maps with enumeration unit sizes of 26, 52, and 104 pixels were, in the majority, indicated by participants as those most suitable for indicating spatial patterns. This was in contrast to choropleth maps with enumeration unit sizes of 1664 and 3328 pixels, which users indicated as not being useful. However, there were some exceptions to this general finding. Thus, determining the optimal enumeration unit size is a challenging task, and requires further insightful investigations.

An analysis of the spatial and temporal distribution of large‐scale data production events in OpenStreetMap / A. Yair Grinberger in Transactions in GIS, Vol 25 n° 2 (April 2021)

In this article we utilize a novel procedure to identify such large‐scale data production events in the history of OpenStreetMap and analyze their patterns. We find that events account for a significant share of OpenStreetMap data and that organizational practices have shifted over time towards local knowledge‐based events and well‐organized data imports. However, regions in the “Global South” remain dependent on remote mapping events, pointing to uneven geographies of representation. We also find that events are frequently followed by periods of increased activity, with the exact nature of effects depending on contextual elements such as previous events. These findings portray organized activities as a significant and unique component which requires consideration when using OpenStreetMap data and analyzing their quality.

Web‐based real‐time visualization of large‐scale weather radar data using 3D tiles / Mingyue Lu in Transactions in GIS, Vol 25 n° 1 (February 2021)  

Public [article]  inTransactions in GIS > Vol 25 n° 1 (February 2021) . - pp 25 - 43 Titre : Web‐based real‐time visualization of large‐scale weather radar data using 3D tiles Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Mingyue Lu, Auteur ; Xinhao Wang, Auteur ; Xintao Liu, Auteur ; et al., Auteur Année de publication : 2021 Article en page(s) : pp 25 - 43 Note générale : Bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Termes IGN] Chine [Termes IGN] dalle [Termes IGN] données météorologiques [Termes IGN] données radar [Termes IGN] géomatique web [Termes IGN] grande échelle [Termes IGN] temps réel [Termes IGN] visualisation 3D [Termes IGN] Web des données [Termes IGN] WebSIG [Vedettes matières IGN] Géovisualisation Résumé : (Auteur) Weather radar data play an important role in meteorological analysis and forecasting. In particular, web‐based real‐time 3D visualization will enable and enhance various meteorological applications by avoiding the dissemination of a large amount of data over the internet. Despite that, most existing studies are either limited to 2D or small‐scale data analytics due to methodological limitations. This article proposes a new framework to enable web‐based real‐time 3D visualization of large‐scale weather radar data using 3D tiles and WebGIS technology. The 3D tiles technology is an open specification for online streaming massive heterogeneous 3D geospatial datasets, which is designed to improve rendering performance and reduce memory consumption. First, the weather radar data from multiple single‐radar sites across a large coverage area are organized into a spliced grid data (i.e., weather radar composing data, WRCD). Next, the WRCD is converted into a widely used 3D tile data structure in four steps: data preprocessing, data indexing, data transformation, and 3D tile generation. Last, to validate the feasibility of the proposed strategy, a prototype, namely Meteo3D at https://202.195.237.252:82, is implemented to accommodate the WRCD collected from all the weather radar sites over the whole of China. The results show that near real‐time and accurate visualization for the monitoring and early warning of strong convective weather can be achieved.
