1. 2011 ScaleMaster – multiscale design decisions

2. C. Brewer CEGIS, June 2011 Categories of design change Content Add Features (C+) Eliminate Features (C-) Reclassify Features (Cc) Reorder Features (Co) Labeling Add Labels (L+) Eliminate Labels (L-) Adjust Appearance (La) Adjust Position (Lp) Geometry Aggregate (Gg) Collapse (Gc) Displace (Gd) Exaggerate (Gx) Merge (Gm) Simplify (Gs) Smooth (Go) GC – replace with generalized dataset Symbol Adjust Color (Sc) Enhance (Se) Adjust Pattern (Sp) Rotate (So) Adjust Shape (Ss) Adjust Size (Sz) Adjust Transparency (St) Typify (Sf) Roth et al., 2011, Cartographic Perspectives

3. CEGIS, June 2011 C. Brewer In Progress New terrain recommendations from Andy Stauffer

4. CEGIS, June 2011 C. Brewer In Progress Road thinning from Larry+, TeleAtlas or TIGER?

5. CEGIS, June 2011 C. Brewer In Progress Airport shape database--IDs, join to FAA data on flight numbers Need rail hierarchy

6. CEGIS, June 2011 C. Brewer In Progress Need hierarchy on GNIS points, structures (17 types)

7. CEGIS, June 2011 C. Brewer In Progress Ongoing placename hierarchy research (TNM UC, ICA Workshop)

8. CEGIS, June 2011 C. Brewer In Progress Landcover resolution, overlay with admin

9. C. Brewer CEGIS, June 2011 What’s not in ScaleMaster yet Ortho imagery through scale Grids, coordinates, PLSS… through scale Coordinate land cover and related admin boundaries –Wooded and forest reserves –Built up areas and incorporated place boundaries, CDPs

10. C. Brewer CEGIS, June 2011 Data development needs from others Areas for GNIS point names: –physical features (bay, valley…), –building complexes (large hospital, campus…) More hierarchies –Roads –Structures (for 17 types in standard) –Airports –Rail –Summits (importance vs elevation threshold or relief analysis) To>
