Comparison of the current and new International Specifications for Orienteering Maps
This paper gives an overview of changes that occurred between the old and new version of International Specifications for Orienteering Maps (ISOM). In addition, we provide several examples on how the new ISOM would affect existing orienteering maps and what would that changes bring to most of orienteering map owners and users. On several maps we transformed symbols from ISOM 2000 according to new ISOM 201x, and used that maps for test comparison purposes. The analysis conducted on complex terrain models, showed that ISOM 201x would cause reduction of legibility on detailed maps. On such maps, due to enlargement of minimum symbol size, mapmakers should use new, more generalized approach of mapping. Some symbols (such as cliffs) will become larger, and therefore the overlapping of symbols might occur. On the other hand, some symbols will become thinner (form lines) and that might lead to bad visibility in case of low quality printing, when organizers of orienteering events can’t use offset printing. The analysis of new ISOM draft, that was conducted on simple terrain models and in urban areas, showed better legibility compared to ISOM 2000 due to thicker line symbols (such as roads, streams and fences). Because of miscellaneous uncertainty with ISOM draft regarding the influence on legibility, further discussion with all orienteering federations should be made and the detailed research focusing on ISOM development should be considered.
