Historical maps are potentially an excellent source of data for characterizing river changes at large scales. The use of vectorized data is essential for such characterization, as well as for highlighting changes in the planform alignment of such reaches over time. At a regional network scale of several thousand kilometers of river, such work requires the vectorization of several hundred or even thousands of maps. This work proposes an automated vectorization procedure for the hydrographic network detailed in the cartographic resources of the IGN (the French National Mapping Agency). The ultimate goal is to use these historical maps to track the planform evolution of the elementary landscape units (water, bare banks, and riparian vegetation) that constitute river corridors at the basin network scale. The Historical Maps Vectorization Toolbox was developed to automatically vectorize river corridor objects (sediment banks, water surfaces, and vegetation polygons) with a high level of accuracy. The toolbox works with a 2-step process: first it classifies the colors detected on the map, then it reconstructs the objects of the fluvial corridor. We also demonstrate a practical use of the toolbox through measuring changes in the surface area of river networks of several hundred kilometers.

However, there is no angkot routes map, and the officially published route information is textual, thus hard to get the transit information quickly. Meanwhile, people with colour vision impairment have a different perception of colour compared to people with normal vision. It can affect them in making decisions when reading a map. The purpose of this study is to design a colourblind-friendly Surabaya City angkot route map prototype and to conduct a cartographic evaluation of the map by considering the colour vision impairment factor. The map was created using ArcGIS and CorelDRAW then checked by using several software packages to ensure that the colours are colourblind-friendly then tested on people with normal vision and people with colour vision impairment. Fifteen out of 15 respondents with normal vision and 11 out of 11 respondents with colour vision impairment could distinguish the colours of the route. All respondents mentioned that symbols and some texts were too small. It shows that the colours on the map can accommodate both groups, but they have difficulty reading the route map because the size of the symbols and the text is too small.

Adaptive transfer of color from images to maps and visualizations / Mingguang Wu in Cartography and Geographic Information Science, Vol 49 n° 4 (July 2022)  

Public [article]  inCartography and Geographic Information Science > Vol 49 n° 4 (July 2022) . - pp 289 - 312 Titre : Adaptive transfer of color from images to maps and visualizations Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Mingguang Wu, Auteur ; Yanjie Sun, Auteur ; Yaqian Li, Auteur Année de publication : 2022 Article en page(s) : pp 289 - 312 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Termes IGN] amélioration des couleurs [Termes IGN] couleur (rédaction cartographique) [Termes IGN] données vectorielles [Termes IGN] esthétique cartographique [Termes IGN] orthoimage couleur [Termes IGN] relation sémantique [Termes IGN] saillance [Termes IGN] visualisation cartographique [Vedettes matières IGN] Géovisualisation Résumé : (auteur) Because crafting attractive and effective colors from scratch is a high-effort and time-consuming process in map and visualization design, transferring color from an inspiration source to maps and visualizations is a promising technique for both novices and experts. 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.

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)  

Public [article]  inCartography and Geographic Information Science > Vol 48 n° 5 (September 2021) . - pp 393 - 416 Titre : Developing reliably distinguishable color schemes for legends of natural resource taxonomy-based maps Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Virgil Vlad, Auteur ; Mihai Toti, Auteur ; Sorina Dumitru, Auteur ; et al., Auteur Année de publication : 2021 Article en page(s) : pp 393 - 416 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Rédaction cartographique [Termes IGN] carte d'occupation du sol [Termes IGN] colorimétrie [Termes IGN] couleur (rédaction cartographique) [Termes IGN] couleur primaire [Termes IGN] lecture de carte [Termes IGN] légende cartographique [Termes IGN] palette de couleurs [Termes IGN] ressources naturelles [Termes IGN] Roumanie [Termes IGN] taxinomie [Termes IGN] visualisation cartographique Résumé : (auteur) The legends of natural resource taxonomy-based maps (e.g. soil, geological, geomorphological, vegetation, and land cover/land use) need many different distinguishable colors. 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.

A learning-based approach to automatically evaluate the quality of sequential color schemes for maps / Taisheng Chen in Cartography and Geographic Information Science, Vol 48 n° 5 (September 2021)

However, most existing methods for evaluating map colors are tedious and subjective manual methods. In this paper, we study sequential color schemes, a widely used map color type and propose a learning-based approach for evaluating the color quality. The approach consists of two steps. First, we extract and characterize the cartographic factors for determining the quality of sequential color schemes, such as color order, color match, color harmony, color discrimination and color uniformity. Second, we present a model to predict the color quality based on AdaBoost, a type of ensemble learning algorithm with excellent classification performance and use these factors as input data. We conduct a case study based on 781 samples and train the AdaBoost-based model to predict the quality of sequential color schemes. To evaluate the model’s performance, we calculated the area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve (AUC). The AUC values are 0.983 and 0.977 on the training data and testing data, respectively. These results indicate that the proposed approach can be used to automatically evaluate the quality of sequential color schemes for maps, which helps mapmakers select good colors.
