Data
● Thematic layers – plan of buildings, terrain survey, evaluation by students
● Data model – <object> and <institution>

Symbols
● Basic properties of buildings● Rough design by users● Respect to conventions of
the target group● Contrast and bold colours● Attractiveness
![Page 7: Accessibility of Buildings in the University of West Bohemia – the Example of a Thematic Map on the Internet](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052905/5584a727d8b42a125c8b4a48/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Technologies & Standards
● Data processing – XSLT templates (data transformation and front-end development)
● XSLT processor (standards – XSLT, XPath, XML Namespaces)
● Leaflet – map client (Javascript library)● HTML 5 & CSS

Changes
● OpenLayers → Leaflet – more comfortable, faster, ready for mobile solutions
● KML → GeoJSON – serialization, relation to Leaflet

Future Steps
● More data and information● Design improvements & Data updating● RUIAN● Contrast scheme● Multimedia (audio recordings)● I-space (description of rooms, corridors, technical
facilities, routes recommendations...)● Links to external data (e.g. public transport)● Multilinguality

Conclusion
● A tool supporting integration● Map as a communication tool● Role of cartographer● Non-proprietary technologies● VGI principles● LOD principles● Further development based on users' requirements
