While generalization algorithms have been tailored to specific regions and landscape conditions by several researchers in recent years, the selection and characterization of regional conditions have not been formally defined nor statistically validated. This paper undertakes a systematic classification of landscape types in the conterminous United States to spatially subset the country into workable units, in preparation for systematic tailoring of generalization workflows that preserve hydrographic characteristics. The classification is based upon elevation, standard deviation of elevation, slope, runoff, drainage and bedrock density, soil and bedrock permeability, area of inland surface water, infiltration-excess of overland flow, and a base flow index. A seven class solution shows low misclassification rates except in areas of high landscape diversity such as the Appalachians, Rocky Mountains, and Western coastal regions.

Designing multi-scale maps: lessons learned from existing practices / Marion Dumont in International journal of cartography, Vol 6 n° 1 (March 2020)

Multi-scale maps strongly augmented the potential uses of maps, compared to the traditional single-scaled paper maps. But the exploration of the multi-scale maps can be cognitively difficult for users because the content of the maps can be very different at different scales. This paper seeks to identify the factors in the design of map content and style that increase or decrease the exploration cognitive load, in order to improve multi-scales map design. We studied sixteen existing examples of multi-scale maps to identify these factors that influence a fluid zooming interaction. Several different analyses were conducted on these sixteen multi-scale maps. We first conducted a guided visual exploration of the maps, and a detailed study of the scales of the maps, to identify general trends of good practices (e.g. the WMTS standard that defines zoom levels is widely used) and potential ways of improvement (e.g. a same map is often used at multiple successive zoom levels). Then, we focused on the visual complexity of the multi-scale maps by analyzing how it varies, continuously or not, across scales, using clutter measures, which showed a peak of complexity at zoom level 12 of the WMTS standard. Finally, we studied how buildings and roads are subject to abstraction changes across scales (e.g. at what zoom level individual buildings turn into built-up areas), which can be one of the causes of exploration difficulties. We identified some good practices to reduce the impact of abstraction changes, for instance by mixing different levels of abstraction in the same map.

Regression modeling of reduction in spatial accuracy and detail for multiple geometric line simplification procedures / Timofey Samsonov in International journal of cartography, Vol 6 n° 1 (March 2020)

Selected algorithms are then applied collaboratively to simplify the whole set of features. However, there is a lack of investigations that report a systematic approach of deriving a similar reduction in accuracy and detail by using different algorithms. In current paper we propose the solution to this problem on the basis of regression modeling between tolerance value of each algorithm and the value of some geometric measure which describes changes in accuracy and detail of the line. This allows fitting the regression model between tolerance values of the two selected algorithms which can be used to obtain similar simplification results. Regressions between Douglas-Peucker, Li-Openshaw and Visvalingam-Whyatt algorithm tolerance values are investigated. Application of methodology is illustrated on the example of three coastlines with significantly different spatial character. Results of the study show that regression coefficients depend highly both on the combination of the two algorithms, and on the character of the line. Finally, it is shown that a weighted combination of accuracy and detail regression models can be used to model the changes in level of detail of the line.

Variable DEM generalization using local entropy for terrain representation through scale / Paulo Raposo in International journal of cartography, Vol 6 n° 1 (March 2020)

Using variably sized kernels to perform filtering, the method is driven by the entropy of local z-values in the DEM, i.e. the amount of information necessary to convey the elevation variety in the neighborhood of each pixel. This paper presents the method in service of low-pass filtering in order to smooth the raster, though other neighborhood-based filters could be implemented as well. When used in smoothing, the method successfully retains detail in areas of higher relief variation and suppresses it in areas of lower variation, thereby retaining more salient features like ridges, peaks, or incised valleys, while diminishing flatter ones. Varying the neighborhood size with which entropy calculations are made allows for filtering through continuous map scale, enabling multi-scale representation. The method also includes a simple correction for smoothed pixels such that their z-value range reflects that of the input DEM, thereby ensuring that subsequent products such as generated contour lines remain within correct ranges. Several illustrations are given of the method's results.

Particularly great progress was made in the late 90s with the use of the multi-agent paradigm. Although the current use of automatic processes in some national mapping agencies is a great achievement, there are still many unsolved issues and research seems to stagnate in the recent years. With the success of deep learning in many fields of science, including geographic information science, this paper poses the controversial question of the title: is deep learning the new agent, i.e. the technique that will make generalization research bridge the gap to fully automated generalization processes? The paper neither responds a clear yes nor a clear no but discusses what issues could be tackled with deep learning and what the promising perspectives. Some preliminary experiments with building generalization or data enrichments are presented to support the discussion.
