拓展地铁线路地图专题服务的增强信息设计与实践

针对地铁线路图的拓展表达需求,提出了两方面的增强信息设计策略:专题层级设置与符号功能性表达。以上海地铁图为例,选择昼夜发车时刻、重要站点车程耗时、站内卫生间和周边景点地标指引等专题进行实验。样图结果表明,所提出的设计方法无需切换信息媒介或变更地图形式,能充分对接常见用户需求,实现地铁站线基底与新增专题内容的有效集成,为用户针对性地快速获取专题服务提供了一种可选方案。该设计方法可为提升地铁线路图的综合空间信息服务能力提供参考。

Augmented Information Design and Practice of Expand Thematic Services on Tube Maps

In response to the expanded expression requirements of the tube map, we propose two strategies to enhance information design: thematic hierarchy setting and symbolic functional expression. Taking Shanghai tube map as an example, we chose day and night departure time, inter-site time consuming, station toilets positions and scenic landmarks along the routes to conduct the experiment. The results show that the proposed design method can fully meet the needs of common users without switching information media or changing map form, and effectively integrate the new thematic content with the metro station line base, which provides an alternative solution for users to access thematic services quickly in a targeted manner. This design method can provide reference for improving the comprehensive spatial information service capability of tube map.
