"Find some topic you care about. Just one. Resist the temptation to have takes on everything else. Let the discourse rage without you while you spend weeks or months actually understanding something ... Change your mind when you find you were wrong. And when you finally have something to say, something you’ve actually earned through careful thought rather than absorbed from the tribal zeitgeist, say it clearly and then step back." —Joan Westenberg

@roytanck Next train to Germany! As DB shows quite the right info and more. Was so surprised, first time, to see the train move on a map. Nice extra. Truly helps the, or my, orientation.

Innovation in Wayfinding Displays🗺️
Our wayfinding displays help people navigate complex public spaces with ease. The ability to access real-time location data through interactive screens is the future of urban navigation.
Have you used wayfinding technology in a public space?

Elevator button panels are always the worst infringers on this front, too.

Look for the up / down buttons:
The ratio of patients to firefighters is large enough that we need to sit down with #elevator #design staff to come up with more effective #wayfinding and #interface concepts.

We’d better have separate icons for light rail and heavy rail or people will never be able to use the MBTA Green and Orange lines. Or the LA Metro A/E and B/D lines. #Transit #wayfinding

Great new article from Pei Dang and colleagues on using #llm Large Language Models for #Wayfinding, comparing their performance with humans, and evaluating the impact of spatial perception and spatial memory, #GISchat, https://doi.org/10.1080/15230406.2024.2405596

Oh I'm on one of these #new :gtrain: #subway cars! Very cool very continuous. The #wayfinding on the screens is a nice ux, but I can imagine a more refined version in the future.

Screen version vs printed and installed…the spider map for the U-District Link station, #Seattle

One of the many spider maps I’ve made for Link Light Rail stations…
Capitol Hill Station — on the screen and in the wild.Spider maps are #transitmaps that show routes serving a specific place. Routes radiate out from that place—sorta like the legs of a spider.

Just discovered a DELIGHTFUL feature on Google Maps. Exploring a place I'll be traveling to, have restaurants highlighted in vicinity of hotel that was my original search. When I mouse over a restaurant it highlights the walking route and gives me the time estimate. Awesome! Transit is a separate option to click on stations; when you do, walk time to get there pops up.

OH MY. I spend hours in the woods every day, far from the trails most people use. So this! This is amazing. I’ve got to go see if tree eyes will help me navigate through the forest.
