Spatial Factors Affecting User's Perception in Map Simplification: An Empirical Analysis |
Abstract | ||
|---|---|---|
In this paper, we describe an empirical study we conducted on the application of a simplification algorithm, meant to understand
which factors affect the human’s perception of map changes. In the study, three main factors have been taken into account,
namely Number of Polygons, Number of Vertices and Screen Resolution. An analysis of variance (ANOVA) test has been applied
in order to compute such evaluations. As a result, number of vertices and screen resolution turn out to be effective factors
influencing the human’s perception while number of polygons as well as interaction among the factors do not have any impact
on the measure.
