An algorithmic approach to detect generalization in sketch maps from sketch map alignment. [PDF]
PLoS ONESketch maps are valuable tools used across various disciplines including spatial cognition, environmental psychology, and spatial reasoning. A common approach to evaluate sketch maps in research is to align and compare them with metric maps.

Invariant spatial information in sketch maps — a study of survey sketch maps of urban areas [PDF]
Journal of Spatial Information Science, 2015 It is commonly recognized that free-hand sketch maps are influenced by cognitive impacts and therefore sketch maps are incomplete, distorted, and schematized.

Probing mental representations of space through sketch mapping: a scoping review [PDF]
Cognitive ResearchCognitive maps are mental representations of space essential for guiding spatial behavior. To assess the properties of these cognitive maps, sketch mapping has been widely used as a research tool in spatial cognition research. This scoping review aims to

Remembering routes: confronting spatial behaviours and sketch maps in individual and collective contexts [PDF]
Frontiers in PsychologyThis exploratory study addresses the following question: Is there an explanatory relationship between the chronological sequence in which individuals explore an environment and the way they subsequently draw a sketch map of that same environment?

A Multilevel Road Alignment Model for Spatial-Query-by-Sketch [PDF]
Applied Sciences, 2020 A sketch map represents an individual’s perception of a specific location. However, the information in sketch maps is often distorted and incomplete. Nevertheless, the main roads of a given location often exhibit considerable similarities between the ...

Digital sketch maps and eye tracking statistics as instruments to obtain insights into spatial cognition [PDF]
Journal of Eye Movement Research, 2018 This paper explores map users’ cognitive processes in learning, acquiring and remembering information presented via screen maps. In this context, we conducted a mixed-methods user experiment employing digital sketch maps and eye tracking. On the one hand,

Theory of sketches for database mappings [PDF]
International Journal of Intelligent Information and Database Systems, 2015 This paper presents two basic operations, separation and data federation, for database schemas that are used in database mapping systems and explains why functorial semantics for database mappings need a new base category instead of usual Set category.
