This report presents the results of a literature review |
|
conducted to identify previous research that could |
|
provide guidelines during the initial design of a new |
|
symbol system for topographic and tactical data display. |
|
Methods of symbol design based on ten dimensions of |
|
visual coding -- shape, alphanumeric, size, numerosity, |
|
inclination, brightness, color, flash rate, stereo depth, |
|
and apparent movement -- are identified and evaluated. |
|
The evaluation of alternative coding methods is based on |
|
three design-oriented criteria: amount of information |
|
conveyed, types of data coded, and aid to operator visual |
|
search. These criteria are considered in the review of |
|
research investigating both unidimensional and more |
|
complex multidimensional symbol systems. A model is |
|
presented which identifies the relationships between many |
|
factors and symbology system characteristics that |
|
ultimately affect the design of symbol systems. (Author) |
