This article presents a user experiment that uses eye-tracking to assess the usability of dark and light maps. Here, two widely used web maps, Google Maps and Gaode Maps, are selected at the street and city scales. Eight map-use tasks are designed and cover four operations (identify, compare, rank, and associate) with space-alone and attributes-in-space distinctions. Four pairs of map-use tasks (light-during-the-day, dark-during-the-day, dark-at-night, and light-at-night) are examined from three aspects: effectiveness, efficiency, and cognitive load. The results provide preliminary evidence that the light-during-the-day performance is generally the best in most cases, followed by the dark-at-night performance; the dark-during-the-day performance is the worst in all cases, followed by the light-at-night performance, which suggests that aligning the map design with the environment (i.e., lighting environment) is critical for better communication. The light-during-the-day performance is the best for space-alone tasks, and the dark-at-night performance is the best for attributes-in-space tasks. Our investigation also indicates that dark maps are far less favored in practice, which suggests that users' preference for using the dark mode of public-facing web maps needs to be shaped. Since light and dark maps are associated with photopic and scotopic vision, respectively, the results indicate the need for future studies on how to leverage scotopic vision to design better dark maps.

Using converted WW1 Army Grid Referencing Systems to identify locations where Australian soldiers fell Europe / Rodney Deakin in International journal of cartography, vol 8 n° 3 (November 2022)

Letter and number grid Woesten references (e.g. X: 28.A.6.b.73) cannot be used by modern GPS navigation devices that require geographical coordinates (latitude and longitude) or current map grid coordinates. This paper provides the background behind this project and demonstrates a method of transforming WW1 grid references to Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) grid coordinates using Google Maps to obtain geographical coordinates, Geographic to UTM grid conversion and a 2D Conformal transformation. As well, it provides a ‘snapshot’ of practical methods that were used to develop a software package that would allow amateur military historians to convert the WW1 Grid Reference System to contemporary coordinates.

Impact of travel time uncertainties on modeling of spatial accessibility: a comparison of street data sources / Yan Lin in Cartography and Geographic Information Science, vol 48 n° 6 (October 2021)  

Public [article]  inCartography and Geographic Information Science > vol 48 n° 6 (October 2021) . - pp 471 - 490 Titre : Impact of travel time uncertainties on modeling of spatial accessibility: a comparison of street data sources Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Yan Lin, Auteur ; Christopher Lippitt, Auteur ; Daniel Beene, Auteur ; et al., Auteur Année de publication : 2021 Article en page(s) : pp 471 - 490 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Analyse spatiale [Termes IGN] accessibilité [Termes IGN] analyse de sensibilité [Termes IGN] ArcMap [Termes IGN] données localisées des bénévoles [Termes IGN] durée de trajet [Termes IGN] Google Maps [Termes IGN] incertitude des données [Termes IGN] indexation spatiale [Termes IGN] navigation automobile [Termes IGN] Nouveau-Mexique (Etats-Unis) [Termes IGN] OpenStreetMap [Termes IGN] plan de déplacement urbain [Termes IGN] réseau routier [Termes IGN] système d'information géographique [Termes IGN] transport public Résumé : (auteur) GIS-based spatial access measures have been used extensively to monitor social equity and to help develop policy. However, inherent uncertainties in the road datasets used in spatial access estimates remain largely underreported. These uncertainties might result in unrecognized biases within visualization products and decision-making outcomes that strive to improve social equity based on seemingly egalitarian accessibility metrics. To better understand and address these uncertainties, we evaluated variations in travel impedance for car and bus transportation using proprietary, volunteer-information-based, and free (non-volunteer-information-based) street networks. We then interpreted the measured variations through the lens of street data uncertainty and its propagation in a common E2SFCA model of spatial accessibility. Results indicated that travel impedance disagreement propagates through the modeling process to effect agreement of spatial access index (SPAI) estimates among different street sources, with larger uncertainties observed for bus travel than car travel. Higher impedance coefficients (β), a model parameter, reduced the impact of street-source variations on estimates. Less urbanized regions were found to experience higher street-source variations when compared with the core-metropolitan area. We also demonstrated that a relative spatial access measure – the spatial access ratio (SPAR) – reduced uncertainties introduced by the choice of street datasets. Careful selection of reliable street sources and model parameters (e.g. higher β), as well as consideration of the potential for bias, particularly for less urbanized areas and areas reliant on public transportation, is warranted when leveraging SPAI to inform policy. When reliable/accurate road network data are not accessible or data quality information is not available, the SPAR is a suitable alternative or supplement to SPAI for visualization and analyses.

Empirical assessment of road network resilience in natural hazards using crowdsourced traffic data / Yi Qiang in International journal of geographical information science IJGIS, vol 34 n° 12 (December 2020)  

Public [article]  inInternational journal of geographical information science IJGIS > vol 34 n° 12 (December 2020) . - pp 2434 - 2450 Titre : Empirical assessment of road network resilience in natural hazards using crowdsourced traffic data Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Yi Qiang, Auteur ; Jinwen Xu, Auteur Année de publication : 2020 Article en page(s) : pp 2434 - 2450 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Géomatique web [Termes IGN] analyse de groupement [Termes IGN] données localisées des bénévoles [Termes IGN] étude empirique [Termes IGN] Google Maps [Termes IGN] Ohio (Etats-Unis) [Termes IGN] participation du public [Termes IGN] réseau routier [Termes IGN] résilience écologique [Termes IGN] risque naturel [Termes IGN] trafic routier Résumé : (auteur) Climate change and natural hazards pose great threats to road transport systems which are ‘lifelines’ of human society. However, there is generally a lack of empirical data and approaches for assessing resilience of road networks in real hazard events. This study introduces an empirical approach to evaluate road network resilience using crowdsourced traffic data in Google Maps. Based on the conceptualization of resilience and the Hansen accessibility index, resilience of road network is measured from accumulated accessibility reduction over time during a hazard. The utility of this approach is demonstrated in a case study of the Cleveland metropolitan area (Ohio) in Winter Storm Harper. The results reveal strong spatial variations of the disturbance and recovery rate of road network performance during the hazard. The major findings of the case study are: (1) longer distance travels have higher increasing ratios of travel time during the hazard; (2) communities with low accessibility at the normal condition have lower road network resilience; (3) spatial clusters of low resilience are identified, including communities with low socio-economic capacities. The introduced approach provides ground-truth validation for existing quantitative models and supports disaster management and transportation planning to reduce hazard impacts on road network.
