Abstract:

The goals of this effort are to identify features of navigation symbology that are problematic when presented on electronic displays and to develop a method to design and evaluate good symbology that takes into account the different platforms on which it will be displayed. Background findings and a proposed experiment to explore some of the higher-level issues related to the design of effective symbology are described.
