We propose MetroSets, a new, flexible online tool for visualizing set systems using the metro
map metaphor. We model a given set system as a hypergraph, consisting of a set of vertices …

Mathematical optimization is the process of determining the set of globally or locally optimal
parameters in a finite or infinite search space. It has been extensively employed in the …

In various scientific and industrial domains, analyzing multivariate spatial data, ie, vectors
associated with spatial locations, is common practice. To analyze those datasets, analysts …

We present new generic methods to efficiently draw schematized metro maps for a wide
variety of layouts, including octilinear, hexalinear, and orthoradial maps. The maps are …

Metro or transit maps, are schematic representations of transit networks to facilitate effective
route‐finding. These maps are often advertised on a web page or pamphlet highlighting …

Traditionally, most schematic metro maps in practice as well as metro map layout algorithms
adhere to an octolinear layout style with all paths composed of horizontal, vertical, and 45∘ …

Thematic maps allow for the visual analysis of spatial data. When comparing two map states,
preserving the mental map of a user facilitates the comparison. One way to achieve this is to …

We investigate the automatic generation of transit map overlays (either geographically
correct or schematic) for the entire planet from OpenStreetMap (OSM) data. To achieve this …

In the context of public transportation, isochrone maps display the area accessible from a
starting point within a given travel time. Transit networks are often displayed using a …

Schematic representations display data in a way that highlights certain properties at the cost
of being less accurate for other aspects of the data. They are an ubiquitous tool to explore …
