An Empirical Study of Algorithms for Point - Feature Label Placement 1
A major factor affecting the clarity of graphical displays that include text labels is the degree to which labels obscure display features (including other labels) as a result of spatial overlap. Point-feature label placement (PFLP) is the problem of placing text labels adjacent to point features on a map or diagram so as to maximize legibility. This problem occurs frequently in the production ...
متن کاملPOPMUSIC for the Point Feature Label Placement
Label placement is a problem of fundamental importance in cartography, where text labels must be placed on maps while avoiding overlaps with cartographic symbols and other labels. It requires positioning labels of area (such as countries and oceans), line (such as rivers and roads) and point (such as cities and mountain peaks) features [2]. Independent of the features being labeled these proble...
متن کاملDiscrete Optimization POPMUSIC for the point feature label placement problem
Point feature label placement is the problem of placing text labels adjacent to point features on a map so as to maximize legibility. The goal is to choose positions for the labels that do not give rise to label overlaps and that minimize obscuration of features. A practical goal is to minimize the number of overlaps while considering cartographic preferences. This article proposes a new heuris...

متن کاملTabu Search Heuristic for Point-Feature Cartographic Label Placement
The generation of better label placement configurations in maps is a problem that comes up in automated cartographic production. The objective of a good label placement is to display the geographic position of the features with their corresponding text in a clear and harmonious fashion, following accepted cartographic conventions. In this work, we have approached this problem from a combinatori...
