Hallo zusammen,
    Ich arbeite an einer Kartenposterfunktion und suche nach Inspiration und ehrlichem Feedback von Leuten, die Karten mögen.

    Ich habe ein paar Beispiele angehängt, die ich bisher mit meinem Tool erstellt habe. Mein Ziel ist es, Poster zu erstellen, die optisch ansprechend aussehen, und nicht nur Screenshots von Karten zu sein, aber ich habe das Gefühl, dass es noch viele Stile und Layouts gibt, die ich noch nicht erforscht habe.

    Einige Fragen, zu denen ich mich über Feedback freuen würde:

    • Welches dieser Poster sieht am ansprechendsten aus?
    • Welche Stile oder Designelemente fehlen?
    • Gibt es Beispiele für Kartenplakate, die Sie an anderer Stelle gesehen haben und die Ihnen besonders gut gefallen?
    • Welche Anpassungsmöglichkeiten würden Sie von einem solchen Tool erwarten?

    Ich interessiere mich sowohl für kartografische als auch für grafische Designperspektiven. Alle Ideen, Beispiele oder Kritik sind willkommen. Danke!

      Not a style issue, but as an outer borough pedant you have more New Jersey than you do Brooklyn. And the Bronx and SI are completely missing.

    2. The Melbourne one looks like a screenshot from a sci-fi movie from the 2000s.

      And I’m sorry, I hate to be saying this, but I didn’t like any of them. The least bad one was Cairo.
      I can’t quite explain why I didn’t like them, but I didn’t.

    3. I like maps because they communicate informations visually.

      Althought your posters definetly have an esthetic element, they don’t convey any useable information.

      These look vaguely threatening. I’m sorry I don’t have more constructive criticism.

      I think the color choices might need to be more deliberate.

      Panaman Canal looks like a drone view of a lava lake, Melbourne looks like a Fallout screenshot, Caracas looks like a horror movie poster.

    6. The Bergen one works because it highlights the physical geography which is pretty unique.

      The Melbourne one almost works because at least it informs you that the city has a large natural harbour.

      But all the Rome one tells me is that it is a city with a lot of roads (true of pretty well all cities?).

      And the Cairo one is seriously offputting – it just looks congested and dirty.

      Graphically, they are all interesting combinations of mass, detail colour and tone but surely a poster should to some extent advertise the destination and none of these do that.

      I’m surprised how accurate the Cairo is, I can even recognize my street

      LOVE Melbourne’s, I’d commission you for a map of my own city in that style if I could

      As a child I had a poster of every single river and lake in my city , I absolutely loved it. Have seen some maps of countries as defined by their watersheds and those are right cool aswell.

    10. I like the Rome one ☝️ and I am a bit stoned so I cant explain why its my favorite

      Ugh showing only roads is really depressing

      For instance the Rome one, the focus is really put on the ring highway. Idk but I’m pretty sure Rome has better things to offer than a highway. My point is that the core energy of the city that I seek, is usually completely opposite to road

    12. I like Bergen and Melbourne. They show what the earth is like there. I’m not a fan of Rome just showing roads. And I agree with others that the colours make a huge difference – Caracas looks pretty threatening in the red light. So it depends what you’re trying to depict

      I love all of these except Bergen. You have hit a really well matching style. I image you mean these to be more art than cartography; which is a big business in my opinion. I have bought several such maps as gifts in the past. My advice is don’t try to guess the taste, just provide 10 or so options for people to choose.

      I don’t mean this to be mean but these feel kind of cheap? to me. They remind me of a graphic that would be on a video game loading screen or info cards for a game like Pandemic.

      I’m just high and perusing so here’s my 1cent, i like what you’re going for, the layout and designs of the places highlight a natural environment that then adds on the human impact. But it’s also this like cerebral, clash of organic flow and human lines. I like it, I think some work better than others (from personal opinion) in could actually find where I lived in one of the maps which was fun, I couldn’t say anything else about accuracy cause I’m not a map wizard, I just like map porn. This felt like I was being briefed in a video game, love that
