A heuristic ontology is an ontology that describes concepts using heuristics (‘rules of thumb’ or guidelines) rather than axioms as in a classical ontology. The heuristics can be used to establish whether a given instance is a member of the concept defined by the heuristics in a data-driven manner. The approach may be particularly useful if data is...

The map generalization has always had subjective characteristic, which implies that the same scale maps derived from the same source map can result in different representations because these processes can be made by different cartographers. In addition, the evolution of computer technology needs a standardization of this process so that generated c...

In this study, we investigate subjective preferences regarding floor plans and schematic maps in the use of a map in an indoor environment. To achieve this, we performed a qualitative experiment with a random user sample; the survey was carried out remotely. The survey was conducted in Portuguese and English, and users were asked to answer question...

Maps support many planning activities, from general purpose tasks to in-depth spatial analyses. However, preferences and intuitions, which occur in all human interactions, are often disregarded in use and user research in cartography, and there is evidences that analysis of these factors is desirable. It is commonly believed that there is a positiv...
