Green versus Red: Eye-tracking evaluation of sequential colour schemes
Original language description
Methods of cartographic visualization are closely related to the use of colour schemes. There are a number of coloured scales that are included in the default menu of GIS and graphic software, but the appropriateness of the colour scale is in many casesquestionable - not only because of the thematic suitability, but also with the focus on the user ability to get the information provided in the map. In addition to choosing a suitable colour scheme it is also very important to select number of intervalsthat can be used for various base hues. The main goal of this contribution is to describe design and results of an eye-tracking experiment, which was aimed at evaluating the efficiency of two different sequential colour schemes. The research is based onthe theory which states that the human ability to distinguish colour shades in various parts of light spectrum varies. Some colour brightness continuum could provide more discriminable shades than another one. Within presented study only
