Construction and Application of Urban Public Library Layout Visualization System

Abstract

Abstract:

The paper reviews the studies about the layout of public libraries and discusses the factors that influence the layout and standards of the layout. Based on these, the paper designs and builds a visualization system for city public library layout, which shows the layout of libraries at different levels,
displays information such as the size, address, telephone number, open hours, and feature collections. And the system is capable of generating a map based on population information which enabled users to discover the shortcomings in the layout of city public libraries. The paper also takes Shanghai as an example, and conducts a visualization analysis of its present library layout. With the help of a field study, the paper gives out some suggestion on improvements.

Key words: Public library, Library layout, Visualization system
