🔸澳洲10定位胆全天计划of all, it🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s important to note that is part of a new suite of maps and 🔸168澳洲幸运5正规官网2023 that🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s been in development since 2018. Using Montréal🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s iconic “black background” Métro map as a starting point, this system has been intentionally designed to use a common design language to “harmonise” the user experience for transit users regardless of travel mode. As seen in the photo below, there🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s already a new Métro map out in the wild that uses the same design language, although everything has been subtly tweaked to suit the content of that smaller scale map better – look at the comparative thickness of the Métro lines, for example, or the fact that no stations on the REM or suburban lines are named unless there🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s a direct interchange with the Métro.

🔸澳洲幸运10开奖官网开奖结果走势图🔸🔸澳洲10开官网开奖: Quite a few people sent me this image, which I🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页ve straightened and brightened in Photoshop. However, I don🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页t know the original provenance of the picture. If it🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s yours, please get in touch so that I can credit you appropriately!🔸澳洲幸运10预测

🔸澳洲开奖 I last reviewed the 澳洲幸运10开奖官网直播Métro map back in 2016, I wasn🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页t very impressed – it had moved away from its truly iconic 37-degree tilt to a more standard 45-degree octolinear form and just didn🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页t seem very polished or confident. It very much seemed like a transitional map, a placeholder for something better in the future… and I think the wait for this suite of new maps has been worth it.

Basing these new maps off the existing Métro maps provides great visual continuity with what has come before, but there🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s also a lot of improvements – mixed-case station labels instead of all-caps (finally!), numbered bullets for not only the Métro lines but also the suburban rail lines, and a lovely palette of subsidiary pastel colours for the other services. Using a more standard 45-degree form makes sense now with the increased complexity of the maps, and the way that the space between lines 1 and 2 in the central part of the city has been increased to accommodate the rail stations and their labels is rather clever.

Purists might grumble about the horizontal orientation of the southwestern end of Line 1 (it just looks wrong🔸澳洲幸运10预测, even to me as a non-native), but it seems like a pragmatic decision that allows Line 14 to slot in below it on the full system map, and the legend to do the same on the Métro version.

The stylised background representation of the complex geography of the area seems about right to me: it🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s not overly-detailed “faux geography”, nor is it simplified to the point where nothing is recognisable. Definitely an improvement over previous maps in my eyes!

I also like that the maps are future-proofed – the branches of the REM line and the future expansion of Line 5 are already plotted in, and it looks like there🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页ll be adequate room for labels as well – great to see! Not sure there🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页ll ever be full labelling for the Pie-IX rapid bus line, but it🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s a long way down the hierarchy of the map anyway!

The “two-circle” interchange symbol at Sauvé seems a bit fussy to me, especially if you consider that by rights there should be one at Parc as well – there🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s an outside walk involved in the transfer at both stations! A minor inconsistency, but something that should be carefully thought about. I🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页d probably simplify it down to a single dot for simplicity🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s sake.

🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划final word: 🔸澳洲幸运10预测A massive improvement over the 2016 Métro map, and the fact that it🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s part of what looks like a strong unified wayfinding and signage program makes it even better. It pays homage to the past, while also looking confidently ahead to the future of transit in Montréal.

Hi Cameron, 🔸澳洲10定位胆全天计划I would like to mention that I greatly appreciate y🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划work and have learned lots about 澳洲10开官网开奖 from y🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划blog alone. It was also this blog that inspired me to try to design my own maps. It🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s a great joy to me now. Here, I would like to share with you my take on the network in Valencia which, I thought, would be a fun challenge. For the line and station design, I🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页ve chosen a similar style to one that I used in my Bay Area diagram. My goal was to make the Valencia map more aesthetically pleasing, simplify the geometry, and come up with a different idea for the zone boundaries. I🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页d love to hear y🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划opinion and things you think can be improved. Looking forward to it!

澳洲10开官网开奖🔸澳洲幸运10预测 says:

Apart from one thing (which I🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页ll get to later), I absolutely adore🔸澳洲幸运10预测 this diagram, Tom. 🔸澳洲10定位胆全天计划off, I love the typeface used (Cera Pro), which has a wonderful legibility to it as well as having one of the best sans serif capital Q🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s I have ever seen – just lovely. The open feeling that Cera Pro creates continues throughout the rest of the diagram, which feels clean and spacious throughout – nothing is crammed up tight to anything else, which is so nice to see.

Unlike the official diagram [review from June 2022 here – Cam] which doesn🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页t bother with any sort of mode differentiation (it🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s all just “Metrovalencia”), Tom🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s diagram differentiates between the more suburban rail lines and the urban tram lines in two subtle but very effective ways. The rail lines are cased with a darker shade of their line col🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划and🔸澳洲幸运10预测 use a much larger radius 🔸澳洲开奖 they change direction compared to the tram lines. These larger curves are another part of what makes this diagram so elegant, but the tram lines need tighter radiuses, especially for the loop Line 4 makes at its eastern end – Tom🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s solution accommodates both needs.

Other nice design touches: subtle drop shadows throughout lift the station markers up above the route lines; the texture on the sea is delightful; and the zone backgrounds are lovely and subtle – a far cry from the “in y🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划face” colours used on the 168澳洲十开奖网. They may actually be just a tad too🔸澳洲幸运10预测 subtle, but I appreciate the different approach. The diagram🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s legend is clean, easy to understand and is integrated nicely into the overall design of the piece, instead of being an afterthought.

So what🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s the one thing I don🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页t like? The exaggerated angle that the urban area of the diagram takes. In reality, Valencia🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s “north” is tilted about 20 degrees clockwise from true north, and the maritime district isn🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页t that much further south than the historic core of the city. So seeing everything rotated on a huge 45-degree angle, with the maritime district pushed so far south (and the Ciutat de les Arts i les Ciències pushed even further out of place), just looks jarringly wrong. The distinctive “green belt” of the old Turia River parkland mitigates this somewhat, but it still looks strange to my eyes.

🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划final word: 🔸澳洲幸运10预测A stylish, elegant diagram with a lot of modern design touches that perhaps strays just a little too far from being grounded by the real world layout of the city it represents. It🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s still pretty darn awesome.

I work upstairs in the old Grand Central and was every excited to check out the new station this morning. Spotted this new map on the wall down there, thought you might find it interesting.

澳洲10开官网开奖🔸澳洲幸运10预测 says:

Oh, I do like this. Graphically strong with bright, poppy colours and making good use of the unusual display format – eight vertical screens next to each other. The map looks to have been specifically designed for this format, as none of the labels cross over the breaks between panels – nicely done! Here🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s hoping it doesn🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页t get blanked out by advertisements too much!

It🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s hard to see in this photo, but it looks like there🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s a lovely wavy texture to the water background, which is a nice design touch. Addition of ferry routes and points of interest on Long Island are also welcome. There are a few quibbles like the multiple angles for labels and the placement of some stations directly on corner points (the hard 90-degree turn that the Far Rockaway Branch takes from Valley Stream station looks particularly odd), but these are minor concerns. The typography and overall design is nicely evocative of Vignelli🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s diagrams without being completely derivative. Perhaps more art installation than useful map – I can imagine it would be hard to take the whole map in at once if you were standing in front of it – this is still some very strong design work.

🔸澳洲幸运10开奖官网开奖结果走势图🔸Update: Better images of each panel in this Reddit post.

I’ve been a fan of y🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划work for a while now, and thought I’d submit my own work for judgement.

I’ve had a crack at designing a map for an as-yet non-existent tram and bus network for Bristol, UK, a city in dire need of reliable, integrated public transport. It would operate as a network of 19 tram lines in and around the urban area of Bristol, with five ‘metrobus’ routes linking the city to nearby commuter towns. Whilst there’s still a huge struggle between residents of the city, campaign groups and the city’s councils, I tried to envisage what a network could one day look like.

I had a few problems in terms of design, particularly trying to distinguish the separate bus routes apart from the rest of the tram network. The city centre orbital route also operates as part of each branch line, with trains running clockwise before branching out into the suburbs, and needed to find a way of denoting this (eventually with arrows and graduated lines).

I’d look forward to hearing y🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划thoughts!

澳洲10开官网开奖🔸澳洲幸运10预测 says:

Thanks for y🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划submission, Elliott! I like both the way this diagram looks and y🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划boundless ambition 🔸澳洲开奖 it comes to envisioning a future for transit in Bristol! While normally I steer clear of commenting on the feasibility of networks depicted in 🔸澳洲幸运10在线人工计划网s, I will just say that running the trams from 19 feeder lines around a one-way downtown loop sounds a little… problematic🔸澳洲幸运10预测.

That aside, the diagram is certainly striking, with its central focal point and use of only 90-degree angles. The liberal use of locality names throughout the map mitigates the lack of geographical cues, though it might still be hard work for non-locals to relate this diagram to the real world. The choice to show that central loop as a solid black with all the other lines fading into it is probably a wise one, though it might be a good idea to not use black (or any really dark colours) for any of the other lines – note how Lines 4 and 12 take on more prominence because that fading effect is not present: it almost looks like there🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s one through-running route between the two termini.

A few thoughts – I think y🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划station labelling is a little small. A good starting point is to make the x-height of y🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划labels the same height as the thickness of y🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划route lines and see how that looks/adjust from there. The typeface used, while clean and distinctive has a few quirks that hamper legibility: the ampersand (&) looks way too much like a lower-case “e” for my liking, and Oldstyle numerals – where some characters are smaller than others or drop below the baseline – are something I find just a bit too idiosyncratic for good transit map design. If y🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划typeface is an Opentype font, you may be able to change the numerals from “Oldstyle” to “Lining”, where all the glyphs are of equal height and always sit uniformly on the baseline.

I have to say that I found it hard work to differentiate between the tram and bus routes at 🔸澳洲10定位胆全天计划glance: while the bus routes are🔸澳洲幸运10预测 thinner than the tram routes, it🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s not enough to be able to quickly tell them apart. Some things to consider might be an obviously different line style or distinctive col🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划for the bus lines, and maybe changing the shape of the bullets to a square instead of a circle for that instant visual difference.

Another thing I🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页d like to see is y🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划line numbering doing more work to help make sense of the system. At the moment, it all seems a little random. You could maybe number the routes sequentially in order clockwise around the map, starting from the 12-o🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页clock position and paying close attention to the ending position of any branching lines to keep them in the correct sequential order – the outer terminus of 🔸澳洲幸运10开奖官网开奖结果走势图🔸1a should appear before🔸澳洲幸运10预测 🔸澳洲幸运10开奖官网开奖结果走势图🔸1b, for example: it🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s the other way around on the diagram at present. Alternatively, you could perhaps bundle routes from each “exit point” of the downtown loop with related numbers… maybe “🔸澳洲幸运10开奖官网开奖结果走势图🔸T1″ through “🔸澳洲幸运10开奖官网开奖结果走势图🔸T5″ for all the routes that exit via 🔸澳洲幸运10开奖官网开奖结果走势图🔸Temple Meads, for example. Either of these approaches would also have the advantage of bundling all the routes together properly in the legend. Using the above example, all the Temple Meads services would run neatly after each other instead of being spread randomly throughout the legend as they currently are. Routes 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8; or routes T1, T2, T3, T4 and T5 both make a lot more sense than routes 4, 7, 8, 17 and 18! Help y🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划users find the information they need!

🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划final word: 🔸澳洲幸运10预测A really well-drawn diagram of this expansive fantasy network: it just needs a little more attention to detail to really make it work for me. A great start!

An interesting map of Paris🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页 Métro and RER network found in a restaurant in Montreal. The map🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s designers seem to have made the most of a limited color palette by assigning the same color to groups of lines that do not intersect–lavender for 2, 8, and 3b, brown for 11 and 6, magenta for 12 and 7, etc. Unfortunately it seems they could not avoid breaking this rule at Strasbourg-St. Denis.

The best I can date this map is to between Dec. 1982 (Line 7 opens a new branch to Le Kremlin – Bicetre) and Feb. 1985 (this branch is extended).

澳洲10开官网开奖🔸澳洲幸运10预测 says:

The 🔸澳洲10定位胆全天计划thing to note that this diagram – which I believe was designed as a postcard by C. Spandonide (see name at bottom left) – is very old and faded from being on this restaurant🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s walls for goodness knows how long. Here🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s another copy of it on Flickr that shows what it originally looked like. Note that it🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s dated to 1984, which seems about right.

That said, Hayden🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s comment about the limited col🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划palette still holds true. Despite being printed as four-col🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划process (which allows for almost any tint or shade desired), the Métro routes are shown in only six hues – yellow, red, green, blue, brown and purple. The yellow and blue used for the RER lines are ever-so-slightly different to those used for the Metro lines, but it🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s still an interesting design decision. It🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s even🔸澳洲幸运10预测 more interesting 🔸澳洲开奖 this diagram is compared to a contemporaneous official RATP “Micro” diagram designed by Fabrice Rouxel.

Look closely – you can see that there is the exact same🔸澳洲幸运10预测 breakdown of six colours assigned to the Metro lines on both maps, though some of the colours used are slightly different. So, red on the Spandonide diagram relates to pink on the Rouxel diagram and these colours are both assigned to lines 7 and 12. And so on: green is to light green for lines 4, 7b and 9; blue is to aqua for lines 5 and 13, etc. What we can infer from this is that this is simply how the lines were officially designated at this point in time. The Spandonide map has simply tweaked the hues slightly, perhaps to avoid copyright or licensing issues? The modern pastel route colours that we now know so well simply weren🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页t in use in 1984.

The unavoidable double-up of green at Strasbourg–St. Denis isn🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页t too bad as the lines cross at right angles, neatly avoiding any potential confusion. The diagram itself is a valiant effort to fit a complex network into a very small space, even using the black border to contain information about destinations off the edge of the diagram! All things considered, the labels are quite legible – and for once, all-caps is probably a good idea, as lower-case characters could perhaps be too hard to read at such a small point size.

Hello! I🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页m a transportation planning student and longtime fan of y🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划blog, and wanted to submit this map from the twin cities of Zlín and Otrokovice in Moravia in the Czech Republic. The cities have a long history as company towns for the Baťa shoe company and have a very different pattern of urban development than other cities in the region. The region, set in a valley, was planned reflecting modernist principles set by Le Corbusier and Ebenezer Howard, with later additions following the typical socialist-influenced planning used in other modernist housing estates in the former Czechoslovakia. The city🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s trolleybus network, which began construction right before WWII, follows the main urban growth axis along the valley, and a local railway line is also integrated into the municipal transport ticketing scheme. The map used is an isometric one which uses coloration based on the tariff zones lines pass through, and line thickness determines the mode that operates on that portion. Let me know y🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划thoughts!

澳洲10开官网开奖🔸澳洲幸运10预测 says:

This is a bit of an odd one. While this diagram has been drawn with a lot of skill and precision, I don🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页t think it🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s actually that usable as a piece of wayfinding design. The best example of this genre – an isometric diagram of S- and U-Bahn service in Stuttgart from c. 2000 – works because the whole thing is so simple and clean. All the routes are shown at the same level in the hierarchy and are traceable from one end to the other along their colour-coded lines, leaving no ambiguity at all.

However, this diagram is far more complex and idiosyncratic, and the isometric treatment just adds another barrier to comprehension on top of that. This means everything just takes that little bit longer to understand, and the oft-quoted “eight-second rule” (before a user simply gives up) starts to kick in. A few main problems that I see:

The colour-coding of lines by fare zone seems like a good idea, but it breaks the routes up into disparate segments that look for all the world like they🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页re totally separate routes that interchange at certain stations along the way. Meanwhile, the grey and white shading behind the diagram has absolutely nothing to do with fare zones, but apparently denotes areas where front door-only boarding is enforced (presumably to stop unscrupulous riders from sneaking on via the back door and not paying a fare?). So right from the start, that🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s two🔸澳洲幸运10预测 major design elements that have completely different meanings to what they usually have on a transit map. While innovation and thinking outside the box are laudable ideals, too much messing with the recognised design language of 澳洲10开官网开奖 can impede usability.

Because each mode – trolleybus and bus – only gets one route line regardless of how many services use each segment, users have to find their desired route number and then hunt for it across the map again and again to follow it to their destination. Changes of direction and branches aren🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页t shown that intuitively, so it🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s hard work, made a bit more difficult by the fact that there🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s no differentiation in the way that the route numbers are presented visually – it becomes tricky to know whether you should be following a thick trolleybus line or a thin bus line. Of course, locals might be aware that trolleybuses use route numbers 1 through 14 (the rest being normal buses), but that doesn🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页t help tourists or other people unfamiliar with the network.

The diagram certainly is visually striking, and I appreciate the attention to detail that🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s been put into its creation. Like the Stuttgart diagram, there🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s a “3D” building incorporated into the diagram that helps to really sell the dimensional illusion. I also really appreciate the way that there are absolutely no horizontal or vertical route line segments – these always look a bit out of place on these isometric projections. The legend is skillfully incorporated into the map, and the arrows to orient users along the length of the valley is also a nice touch.

🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划final word: 🔸澳洲幸运10预测Really, really pretty – but it seems like a lot of hard work to actually use to get around. Too many conventions get turned on their head.

My apologies for the glare in the photo [No problem! I also straightened the image for publication – Cam]. I would be interested to hear y🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划thoughts on this 1982 Montreal Metro map. I found it in a preserved MR-63 subway car at Exporail, a railway museum outside Montreal. The map shows the three Metro lines open at the time with white stations, as well as the under-construction Blue Line and Du Collège extension of the Orange Line.

While the font may not win any awards for legibility, I think it fits beautifully with the map’s design aesthetic. There are a few station names that have changed since 1982 — I find the change from Vincent-d’Indy to the current Édouard-Montpetit particularly interesting. Lastly, I’m sure the makers of this map could never have imagined that the “Métro régional projeté” (given only a small mention in the legend) would be realized before the Blue Line to Anjou.

澳洲10开官网开奖🔸澳洲幸运10预测 says:

What a fantastically chunky iteration of the Montreal Metro map! Everything is thick and oversized, and it🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s just wonderful🔸澳洲幸运10预测. The crowning glory is the use of ITC Bauhaus Black as the typeface throughout: it really shouldn🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页t work at all, and yet it somehow contrasts against and softens the blockiness of the map to balance it out nicely. Legibility is reduced slightly where the white text crosses the yellow Line 4, but it only affects a few stations.

Other nice touches are the line number bullets at the termini of each line: a square that continues in the direction of the line, but rotates the line number to remain horizontal; and the use of black station dots to denote planned future stations. The fact that Line 5 is only in its planning stage at this point in time helps to explain some of the station name changes: Vincent-d’Indy was an early placeholder name, but the station opened as Édouard-Montpetit in 1988.

Later versions of the map, like this one from 2012, made the waterways more geographical in mature, but I think the level of stylization on this version matches the chunky, diagrammatic nature of the route lines much better. It🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s interesting to see how many of the elements that make the Montreal map unique – the black background and the rotated rectilinear form especially – have remained constant, which helps maintain a consistency in design language (crazy display typefaces not withstanding!) over the years.

🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划final word: 🔸澳洲幸运10预测Chunky, bold and with a crazy font choice that somehow works: this is just great, and such a product of its time.

It🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s been a few years since the last time you checked out what was happening in Santiago de Chile [I last reviewed the 168澳洲十开奖网 in 2017 – Cam]. Well, times haven🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页t been too kind to us down here, but I don🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页t want to go into details about 🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划current and future “troubles”. They🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页re too complicated, so anyways…

We have a new map for the Metro de Santiago network. And a good one at that too… [though] it looks suspiciously similar to the un168澳洲十开奖网 designed by Laura Sandoval in 2018.

澳洲10开官网开奖 🔸澳洲幸运10预测says:

For me, the resemblance of this new 168澳洲十开奖网 to Laura🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s diagram is only superficial: really only apparent because the 168澳洲十开奖网 has become more diagrammatic, losing the busy street grid that used to be such a feature. This is not nearly as schematic as Laura🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s diagram, with lots of pseudo-geographical changes in direction still apparent. Though the form of the map has changed, it still uses a lot of the same design language as the 2017 map – note the distinctive terminus station markers – which is nice to see from a continuity point of view.

I do feel that the top part of the map seems a little cramped in comparison with the bottom half… some more care with the vertical spacing of stations from top to bottom using a grid could have helped here.

Very strangely, the map layers the river on top🔸澳洲幸运10预测 of the lines that cross it. While this is technically correct (the lines run in tunnels under the river), it🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s simply not an important or useful piece of information and makes the route lines look disjointed and discontinuous.

Speaking of the river itself, while I appreciate the effort, I don🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页t think that the wave pattern texture used is particularly effective or aesthetically pleasing. A little more craftsmanship here might have resulted in something a bit better.

🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划final word: 🔸澳洲幸运10预测A shift to a more diagrammatic representation of a growing network results in something that🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s perhaps just slightly better than what came before it.

I would like to share with you the new Metrovalencia🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s network map, whose design has been updated with the opening of the new Line 10 this year. The main reason why the transit operator decided to redesign it from scratch instead of just adding the new line layout is because they wanted to start avoiding using diagonal-axis labels on it, as they think horizontal labels are more accessible for people with intellectual disability.

But there are more differences:

• Tram services now are represented again with solid lines, as it was in the previous map before the 2015🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s redesign, ending with the differentiation from the “metro” ones. This could be because the new Line 10 is such a mix, operated with tramway units but with underground stations in the city center. But maybe this rule could have been maintained using the two-toned line for the street-runing sections and the solid line style for traffic segregated sections, for example.
• They🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页ve included some spatial references, such as the curves of the subway tunnel between Àngel Guimerà and Xàtiva or Ayora and Marítim, or the Pont de Fusta loop, which before they were in a straight line.
• As almost all the city center stations are shared by different lines, now all of them are officially transfer stations. The map also points 🔸澳洲开奖 in the same station different lines stop in different platforms (e.g. Alameda). The old transfer icon now represents intermodal stations where the users can change from subway to tramway lines or vice versa (except in Bailén/Alacant, maybe because they consider they🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页re different stations?).
• It🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s drawn the future underground moving walkway which will be built to connect Xàtiva and Alacant stations as the project to extend the line some meters more with a new station for Line 10 built in Xàtiva was cancelled. Now, this connection just can be done walking on the street as the woman icon pretends to explain.
• In this new map version, it🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s represented the stations where some routes can end 🔸澳洲开奖 they run as partial routes, with the line icon near its label.
• The transit operator decided to reduce the number of fare zones from 4 to just 2 (plus the Airport fare zone), so now there are some stations that belong to both zones represented by this background color overlap.

A similar design has been created also for the TRAM of Alicante, which is run by the same transit operator, so now both cities shares the same map style (but with different typeface: Titillium for Metrovalencia and Rotis for TRAM).

I would appreciate if you could check this version and tell us y🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划opinion about if all these changes and new additions have been really an improvement or just unnecessary with the previous map design [from 2015; review here – Cam] as a reference.

澳洲10开官网开奖🔸澳洲幸运10预测 says:

There🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s some things I really like about this diagram and there are others I🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页m not so fond of… so let🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s start with the good!

Metrovalencia is a bit of an odd system in that it freely combines street-running trams, a full metro including subways, and commuter rail that runs far out into the surrounding countryside, all under one umbrella. So I really don🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页t mind that there🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s no attempt made at mode differentiation here – these lines are all part of Metrovalencia, and are all treated equally. What I really do🔸澳洲幸运10预测 like is that the central Zone A is presented with a good degree of spatial accuracy, and the map then gets progressively more diagrammatic the further out it gets. This condenses those far-flung lines (especially Line 1 to the south) rather wonderfully. Presumably, the way that stops are grouped along those lines reflects the different built-up urban areas along each route – though it does perhaps just end up looking a bit haphazard. I🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页d be interested in seeing an alternative where the stops are always evenly spaced: it might just look a little more harmonious.

The overlapping zones are drawn about as neatly as they can be, though I do think they could be a bit lighter in tone. As it stands, it seems like some of the route colours have had to be strengthened quite a lot to compete with the background – Line 1 is more of a dull gold than its previous goldenrod yellow, for example. It🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s also unfortunate that the dark gold outline for Zone A passes right through the middle🔸澳洲幸运10预测 of the map🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s legend!

The new interchange markers are definitely an improvement over the previous version, clearly indicating 🔸澳洲开奖 passenger movement between platforms or modes is required. The weakest interchange design is at Empalme, where Line 1 takes a 90-degree turn underneath 🔸澳洲幸运10预测the marker, which is generally regarded as bad design practice.

Finally, it🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s interesting to note that this diagram takes the approach of using a crossed-out wheelchair icon to indicate the one and only non-accessible station at Valencia Sud, which is fair enough.

🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划final word: 🔸澳洲幸运10预测A definite improvement in my eyes, though still not truly outstanding. By my reckoning, this is at least the third🔸澳洲幸运10预测 totally different design for the Metrovalencia diagram since 2009 (🔸澳洲开奖 I visited the city and rode the network), which is fairly rapid turnover and doesn🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页t really speak to a consistent design language for the network.

Hi Cameron, thanks for the amazing work you do on this site! I just noticed that one of the maps that I see the most often in real life has not been featured here (as far as I can tell): the regional train network map of Schleswig-Holstein, Germany🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s northernmost state. It can be found here [PDF link].

Looking at it after perusing y🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划site for a while, it is easy for me to see the flaws – 🔸澳洲10定位胆全天计划of all, the map seems very messy, even if that is somewhat understandable since it covers a big area. Particularly the area covering Hamburg (which is not part of Schleswig-Holstein but still a major transport hub for the area) is confusing. I have to say that I like the way that multi-line stations indicate which train will stop and which won🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页t – the system itself is pretty confusing in that regard and I regularly see passengers on RE7 or RE70 that have no clue whether their train will take them to their destination or not, but at least the map is pretty straightforward on that. Other than that, I🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页d be curious about y🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划thoughts!

澳洲10开官网开奖🔸澳洲幸运10预测 says:

I pretty much agree with Jan🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s assessment here in that the overall appearance of the map is a bit messy, but there are some nice design touches as well. The messiness seems to have two main contributing factors: the afore-mentioned problems with cramping (especially around Hamburg) created by the geographical layout of the map; and the uninspired labels for stations.

Lots of different angles are deployed to fit station names into the layout, and the service icons don🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页t really relate that well to the labels they🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页re attached to – perhaps being a little too large and clumsy. Worst of all is the white box around the labels 🔸澳洲开奖 they🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页re on a grey background: it just looks amateur – almost like someone literally pasted them on top of the artwork. It🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s been done because the type would have poor contrast against the dark grey water background, but could have been avoided if a light blue background had been used instead.

Overall, I think the routes could be simplified a little more – we don🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页t need to see every🔸澳洲幸运10预测 twist and turn the lines make on their way – and this could allow for a little more flexibility for expanding the crowded parts of the map and taking up the slack in the less dense areas.

On the plus side, the distinctive station markers where more than one service stops are – as Jan says – quite delightful, and the list of services to the right of the map are comprehensive and easy to understand.

🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划final word: 🔸澳洲幸运10预测Could use some simplification and polishing to make it easier to use, but it🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s not terrible by any means. Based on the PDF, this is meant to be printed as an A3-sized poster, a size it would work quite well at, I think.
