摘要/Abstract

摘要： 面域拓扑图是一种利用区域面积大小定量表达区域属性信息的可视化方法。由于其区域面积本身已经表示某一变量，因此这更有利于双/多变量的制图表达。针对目前基于面域拓扑图的双/多变量表达方法中存在的难以表达相邻区域之间基本状况和不利于不同地理现象的空间分布规律及差异表达的问题，本文提出一种面向双/多变量的连续面域拓扑图可视化方法。首先通过格网密度补偿和积分步长逐步试探的方法对基于扩散模型的连续面域拓扑图生成算法进行部分优化，完成基本变量的表达，然后分别通过空间内插和符号扩展完成第2和第3变量在连续面域拓扑图中的表达。最后以慕尼黑市人口密度和银行/ATM分布（双变量）数据以及奥格斯堡市人口密度数据、幼儿园分布以及规模数据（多变量）为试验数据进行可视化，并通过实证分析验证了该方法的有效性和优越性。

Abstract: Area cartogram is a visualization method that quantitatively represents regional attribute information by using the area size. Area cartogram is more conductive to the bivariate/multivariate mapping because the area size itself participates in the expression of variables. Now, bivariate/multivariate mapping based on area cartogram is difficult to express the basic situation between adjacent regions, and it is also difficult to express the spatial distribution of different geographical phenomena, to detect differences between two or more variables and spatial patterns. A method of a continuous Area cartogram for two or multiple variables has been proposed in this paper. Firstly, compensation of grid density and the progressive heuristics of the integration step are used to improve and optimize the classic algorithm of continuous area cartogram-"the diffusion-based method for producing density equalizing maps". Then, the first variable is visualized by area cartogram and the second or more variables are visualized by interpolating location on a continuous Area cartogram and symbolization. Finally, we use the population density and bank/ATM distribution data in Munich (bivariate mapping), the population density, kindergarten distribution and scale data in Augsburg (multivariate mapping) as case studies. This method is proved to be more effective and superior by the experiment results.

Key words: geovisualization, bivariate/multivariate mapping, continuous area cartogram, the diffusion-based method for producing density equalizing maps
