Cognitive evaluation of computer-drawn sketches (1999)
Preprint / Working Paper
Visvalingam, M., & Dowson, K. Cognitive evaluation of computer-drawn sketches

First paragraph:
Global terrain data is becoming increasingly available in various forms, such as contours, Triangulated Irregular Networks (TINs) and grid Digital Elevation Models (DEMs) . DEMs are also known as height
fields and as altitude matri... Read More about Cognitive evaluation of computer-drawn sketches.

A computer science perspective on the bendsimplification algorithm (1999)
Journal Article
Visvalingam, M., & Herbert, S. (1999). A computer science perspective on the bendsimplification algorithm. Cartography and Geographic Information Science, 26(4), 253-270. https://doi.org/10.1559/152304099782294177

The primary aim of this study was to evaluate whether the use of bends provides a better basis than point elimination for research on line structuring. These investigations were undertaken using Arc/Info 7.1.1. Comparative experimental results sugges... Read More about A computer science perspective on the bendsimplification algorithm.

Deconstruction of fractals and its implications for cartographic education (1999)
Journal Article

The research reported here was designed for two reasons: firstly, to involve anyone with an interest in cartographic visualization to participate in eliciting cartographic knowledge and to provide them with the opportunity to contribute their practic...
