Research article in edited proceedings (conference) | Peer reviewedAbstract
Vagueness in sketch maps is evident but is understudied. This paper presents various ways in which vague places are visualized in sketch maps. We analyzed 40 different types of sketch maps of Muenster, Germany taken from our research group database that depict selected vague places in the city. We identified seven types of visualizations and found that people usually combine these types of visualizations in representing vague places.
