Description

This repository contains three documents accompanying the article 'Explore maps as you read a comic book.

The first document compiles several types of breaks encountered in various pan-scalar maps. Each type is also assigned a progression note after an analysis of their effects on the user.

The next table illustrates an example of good generalisation for each of the hydrographic patterns observed in the article. This generalisation is based on three key concepts of progressivity, promoting a continuity of meaning, coherence, and rhythm.

The final document represents a scale master inspired by the methodology of (Brewer and Buttenfield, 2007). In the article, we demonstrate how to adapt it to pan-scalar maps to better visualize sequences, as well as two types of rhythms: map cadence and abstraction cadence.
