Over the last fifty years, research into street networks has gained prominence with a rapidly
growing number of studies across disparate disciplines. These studies investigate a wide …

The Connected City explores how thinking about networks helps make sense of modern
cities: what they are, how they work, and where they are headed. Cities and urban life can …

Abstract In The Image of the City Lynch describes how individuals perceive and recall
features in urban spaces. The most distinctive elements in the urban landscape-categorised …

This article addresses the problem of incorporating cognitively salient landmarks in
computer-generated navigation instructions. On the basis of a review of the existing …

It is well received in the space syntax community that traffic flow is significantly correlated to
a morphological property of streets, which are represented by axial lines, forming a so called …

Urban streets are hierarchically organized in the sense that a majority of streets are trivial,
while a minority of streets is vital. This hierarchy can be simply, but elegantly, characterized …

Dominant approaches in computer-assisted wayfinding support adhere to the deeply
problematic principles of turn-by-turn navigation. In this article, we suggest a new approach …

Centrality measures describe structural properties of nodes (and edges) in a network.
Betweenness centrality (Freeman 1977) is one of them, characterizing on how many …

A hierarchical data model is needed in mobile navigation systems to generate route
instructions on multiple levels of detail (LODs), thereby adapting to users' various …

As one of the major concerns in cartographic generalization, road network generalization
aims at maintaining the patterns of road networks across map scales. Previous methods …
