Functionality

Task

The University of Freiburg has a software suite for the automated generation of geographically correct or schematic transit maps. This could be very interesting for the Netzgrafik-Editor. Therefore we have to:

• Review the software suite for automated generation of geographically accurate or schematic transit maps for its functionality and performance.

• Consider how the features of the software suite can be integrated into the Netgrafik Editor to enable users to create geographically accurate or schematic transit maps.
