What aspects should tourist maps be drawn from?

The drawing of tourist maps should start with the purpose, content and form of drawing. First of all, we must make clear the purpose of painting. When designing a tourist map, it is necessary to find out which readers the map serves, what tourist spatial information it provides, and what aspects need to be improved and updated compared with previous similar maps, and understand the general requirements for compiling tourist maps. To achieve a clear goal, it is necessary to choose the target information of the tourist area and the relevant information that is convenient for tourists to visit and live. Designers should make full use of existing information, such as tourism resources, regional natural and social environment and related maps, photos and paintings. Conduct on-the-spot investigation, investigate and study the requirements of users of tourist maps, verify and supplement the previous materials, and have clear guiding ideology and principles for the handling of materials. Second, we should express the content clearly. According to the purpose, scale, format and specifications of the map, the landscape characteristics of the surveying and mapping area and the needs of users, select and strengthen the main and typical contents that have an important role and influence on the theme expression, discard the secondary contents that have little or nothing to do with the theme of the map, and select the contents in the order from whole to part, from high to low, and from main to secondary. Different types of tourist maps have different contents. The tourist traffic map should describe the traffic routes, grades and traffic ports (stations) in detail, but not the elements unrelated to traffic and tourism (such as factories, soil, geology, etc.). ) should be abandoned. The tour guide map shall clearly indicate the tourism resources, tour routes, and information related to tourists' sightseeing, shopping, entertainment, catering, accommodation, transportation, etc. Traffic lines and ports outside the area or far away from scenic spots can be omitted. The degree of generalization and selection of tourist maps varies with the scale. On small-scale tourist maps, tourist resources and other elements should be highly summarized, cities should be merged into blocks, or even represented by hierarchical concentric circles, and scenic spots can only be represented by a small pictogram. On the large-scale tourist map, this part can be displayed in detail. Every street in the city, even every building, every path, every mountain peak and every tourist spot in the scenic spot should be accurately represented. Third, we should choose a reasonable form of expression. The projection form and proportion should be determined according to the purpose and main content of drawing. The guide map serving tourists has no special requirements on the projection form, but it has requirements on the scale, showing the spatial relationship between scenic spots and service facilities as large as possible. Tourist traffic maps serving motorists or long-distance travelers require small projection deformation and accurate route length. For a larger area, use a smaller scale. Tourism map requires accurate planning, projection deformation law and accurate scale calculation. Reasonably choose the expression methods of environment and elements, such as landscape description or shading, instead of using contour lines or hierarchical colors. Finally, according to the specific situation, you can choose the design layout, loose-leaf form, specifications, appended drawings (tables) form, format size and binding specifications.
