Abstract

We have created a system of rule-based map content transformations that allows to create maps that are better fit for specific purposes and user groups than the base material. In this paper we demonstrate the application of the map content transformations in route planning and route guidance of a navigation system for specific user groups. We show that it is possible to create maps that are better suited to these tasks than the material on which they are based.
