Influence of cartographic visualization methods on cognitive processing: comparison of extrinsic and intrinsic visualization of avalanche hazard maps

Original language description

The aim of this research was to explore the influence of cartographic visualization on users' information processing. In our experiment, two alternative visualization methods were used (Kunz, 2011): an intrinsic method (bivariate colour scheme) and an extrinsic method (combination of colour and shape). The presented topic was the combination of avalanche hazard and uncertainty level. In the first case, both characteristics were visualized using a specific colour schema, where colour hue visualized the avalanche hazard and colour saturation depicted the uncertainty level. Secondly, the avalanche hazard was visualized by colour scale and the uncertainty level by graduated size circles. The first phase of the experiment was performed on the MuTeP testingplatform (Šašinka & Stachoň, 2013) enabling collective data gathering. The second phase of the experiment used an eye-tracking tool to enable deeper understanding of the ongoing cognitive processes.
