Abstract
Concept for the historic parks' tactile maps development
Highlights
The research is carried out on the example of tactile maps for historic park layouts in 5 selected styles: Renaissance, Baroque, Sentimental, English and Japanese (Fig. 1)
The idea of the research is to work out the principles of selecting and generalizing the content of tactile maps of parks, developing an original set of tactile and graphic signs and editing rules, as well as the method of preparing and printing tactile maps using modern low-cost printing techniques (e.g. 3D printing, swelling paper)
The main challenge is to develop common set of cartographic signs for elements present in all park styles, and unique cartographic signs for the elements that distinguish them. It is very important for easy reception of the map content and better understanding of the cultural values transmitted by maps
