To date, existing image-to-image color transfer methods suffer from ambiguities and inconsistencies; no computational approach is available to transfer color from arbitrary images to vector maps. To fill this gap, we propose a computational method that transfers color from arbitrary images to a vector map. First, we classify reference images into regions with measures of saliency. Second, we quantify the communicative quality and esthetics of colors in maps; we then transform the problem of color transfer into a dual-objective, multiple-constraint optimization problem. We also present a solution method that can create a series of optimal color suggestions and generate a communicative quality-esthetic compromise solution. We compare our method with an image-to-image method based on two sample maps and six reference images. The results indicate that our method is adaptive to mapping scales, themes, and regions. The evaluation also provides preliminary evidence that our method can achieve better communicative quality and harmony.

Visualising post-disaster damage on maps: a user study / Thomas Candela in International journal of geographical information science IJGIS, vol 36 n° 7 (juillet 2022)

The large variety of representations that we have observed leads to problems of transfer and variations in analysis. In this article, we propose a representation, Regular Dot map (RD), and we compare it to 4 others routinely used to visualise post-disaster damage. Our comparison is based on a user study in which a set of participants carried out various tasks on multiple datasets using the various visualisations. We then analysed the behaviour during the experiment using three approaches: (1) quantitative analysis of user answers according to the reality on the ground, (2) quantitative analysis of user preferences in terms of perceived effectiveness and appearance, and (3) qualitative analysis of the data collected using an eye tracker. The results of this study lead us to believe that RD is the best compromise in terms of effectiveness among the various representations studied.

The effect of map label language on the visual search of cartographic point symbols / Paweł Cybulski in Cartography and Geographic Information Science, vol 49 n° 3 (May 2022)  

Public [article]  inCartography and Geographic Information Science > vol 49 n° 3 (May 2022) . - pp 189 - 204 Titre : The effect of map label language on the visual search of cartographic point symbols Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Paweł Cybulski, Auteur ; Vassilios Krassanakis, Auteur Année de publication : 2022 Article en page(s) : pp 189 - 204 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Termes IGN] détection de cible [Termes IGN] étiquette [Termes IGN] langage cartographique [Termes IGN] langue [Termes IGN] lecture de carte [Termes IGN] oculométrie [Termes IGN] sémiologie graphique [Termes IGN] symbole graphique [Termes IGN] visualisation cartographique [Vedettes matières IGN] Cartologie Résumé : (auteur) The present study aims to examine how the visual search for cartographic symbols is affected by the language of map labels. More specifically, we explore the influence of native language in the performance of a visual search map task which is referred to target point symbol detection. The main research hypothesis is that the relative position of the target symbols plays a significant role in the visual search process, although labels language impacts reaction time. In a controlled laboratory experiment with 38 participants and eye tracking technology, we used maps with labels in participants’ native language (Polish) and in Chinese, which participants could neither read nor write. We find that the detection of target symbols with Chinese labels is faster when the symbol’s location is peripheral. On the other hand, faster detection of target symbols with labels in participants’ native language favors central location. It turned out that having noticed the target symbol, participants fixated on the native language label. For Chinese labels, having seen the target symbol, participants did not fixate on the label. It also turned out that when participants searched for a target symbol located in the peripheral zone, more visual attention was in this zone. However, when the target symbol’s location was central, the participants’ visual attention focused mostly on the central zone. This confirms the significant role of the location of cartographic symbols in the visual search process.

A user-centric optimization of emergency map symbols to facilitate common operational picture / Tomasz Opach in Cartography and Geographic Information Science, vol 49 n° 2 (February 2022)

Sharing is typically achieved through interactive tools, either desktop or web-based, in which map displays play an essential role. That role can be further strengthened if (1) agreed emergency symbols that are used in map-based interactive tools are sufficient to encode multifaceted operational information visually; and (2) the symbols are legible and meaningful for the diverse users of those tools. The authors revisited official emergency map symbols in use in Norway and reconsidered them against current requirements. To this end, they first conducted several meetings with stakeholders to elicit adequate revision requirements. Next, the reconsideration included the extension of the symbol set, symbol modification, and grouping. After the reconsideration, emergency management officers and specialists were interviewed. The interviews confirmed the agreement with the symbol categorization, extension of the symbols, and their modifications. The interviewees also made numerous suggestions to be considered in a follow-up study. Moreover, two concepts – symbol standardization and symbol harmonization – were proposed.

Complexity-based matching between image resolution and map scale for multiscale image-map generation / Qian Peng in International journal of geographical information science IJGIS, vol 35 n° 10 (October 2021)  

Public [article]  inInternational journal of geographical information science IJGIS > vol 35 n° 10 (October 2021) . - pp 1951 - 1974 Titre : Complexity-based matching between image resolution and map scale for multiscale image-map generation Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Qian Peng, Auteur ; Zhilin Li, Auteur ; Jun Chen, Auteur ; et al., Auteur Année de publication : 2021 Article en page(s) : pp 1951 - 1974 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Termes IGN] appariement de lignes [Termes IGN] échelle cartographique [Termes IGN] Hong-Kong [Termes IGN] niveau de détail [Termes IGN] objet géographique linéaire [Termes IGN] orthophotocarte [Termes IGN] précision cartographique [Termes IGN] précision planimétrique [Termes IGN] résolution globale (imagerie) [Termes IGN] symbole graphique [Termes IGN] visualisation multiéchelle [Vedettes matières IGN] Généralisation Résumé : (auteur) An image-map is a compromise between an image and a map. 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.
