Enrichment of routing map and its visualization for multimodal navigation
Yueqin Zhu · 2012
This thesis is dedicated to a novel approach for the design of customized routing maps which demonstrate the route along with the fast rendering of a right amount of routing-relevant information that matches the cognitive capacity of the user on route. Given a route with mono- or multimodality, the proposed approach first estimates the salience of individual mapping objects by combining the passive salience from internal characteristic of spatial data and the active salience from the participant. The achieved results are visualized in multi-scale routing map with a dynamic labeling algorithm. The proposed approach is implemented as web-based services. Its feasibility has been verified in several experiments.
