Figure-ground in map design (Redirected from Figure-Ground in Map Design)

An effectively designed map is one in which the intended message is clearly communicated to the percipient, or map user. By employing the concept of figure-ground , a viewer can easily distinguish between the main figure on a map and the background information. Several concepts that are key to developing good figure-ground in any cartographic design are differentiation , closed form , centrality...

Self-organizing map (Redirected from Self-organising map)

The self-organising map (SOM) is a method for unsupervised learning , based on a grid of artificial neurons whose weights are adapted to match input vectors in a training set. It was first described by the Finnish professor Teuvo Kohonen and is thus sometimes referred to as a Kohonen map . Table of contents showTocToggle("show","hide") 1 A mathematical approach to the algorithm...

Offset mapping (Redirected from Parallax Mapping)

Offset Mapping (also, Photonic Mapping , Parallax Mapping or Virtual Displacement Mapping ) is an alternative to the bump mapping and normal mapping techniques applied to textures in 3D rendering applications such as video games . To the end user, this means that textures (such as wooden floorboards) will have more apparent depth and realism with less of an influence...

Dymaxion map

Unfolded Dymaxion map with nearly-contiguous land masses. The Dymaxion map of the Earth is a projection of a global map onto the surface of a three-dimensional regular solid, which can then be unfolded to a net in many different ways and flattened to form a two-dimensional map which retains most of the relative proportional integrity of the spherical globe map. It...

Simultaneous localization and mapping

Simultaneous localization and mapping ( SLAM ) is a technique used by robots and autonomous vehicles to build up a map within an unknown environment while at the same time keeping track of its current position. This is not as straight forward as it might sound due to inherent uncertainties in discerning the robot's relative movement from its various sensors . If at the next iteration of...

Deep map refers to an emerging practical method of intensive topographical exploration, popularised by author William Least Heat-Moon with his book PrairyErth: A Deep Map . (1991). A deep map work most often takes the form of engaged documentary writing of literary quality; although it can equally well be done in long-form on radio and does not preclude the combination...
