Abstract
A method for depicting location attributes in a map environment. The method includes receiving a request for parameters about a first type of location. The method includes determining a first set of directional arrows, where each directional arrow is associated with a location and has a first set of properties based on the parameters about the first type of location. The method further includes determining a selection of a first directional arrow, which is associated with a first location, from the first set of directional arrows. Modifications to the first set of directional arrows are made based on the selection of the first directional arrow.
Claims20
A method comprising:
- generating, by the one or more processors, a first set of directional arrows, wherein each directional arrow of a first set of directional arrows is associated with at least one location from a first set of locations, and wherein the first set of directional arrows is generated responsive to a first, second, and third parameters associated with the respective at least one location from the first set of locations;
- and
- displaying, by the one or more processors, the first set of directional arrows, wherein each directional arrow of the first set of directional arrows provide an indication of the first, second, and third parameters associated with the respective at least one location from the first set of locations, wherein the indication of the first, second, and third parameters provided by the display of the first set of directional arrows, comprises:
- a weight of the first set of directional arrows, a direction of the first set of directional arrows, a length of the first set of directional arrows, and a color of the first set of directional arrows.
1 more element
A computer program product comprising:
- a computer readable storage medium and program instructions stored on the computer readable storage medium, the program instructions comprising:
- program instructions to generate a first set of directional arrows, wherein each directional arrow of a first set of directional arrows is associated with at least one location from a first set of locations, and wherein the first set of directional arrows is generated responsive to a first, second, and third parameters associated with the respective at least one location from the first set of locations;
- and
- program instructions to display the first set of directional arrows, wherein each directional arrow of the first set of directional arrows provide an indication of the first, second, and third parameters associated with the respective at least one location from the first set of locations, wherein the indication of the first, second, and third parameters provided by the display of the first set of directional arrows, comprises:
- a weight of the first set of directional arrows, a direction of the first set of directional arrows, a length of the first set of directional arrows, and a color of the first set of directional arrows.
2 more elements
A computer system comprising:
- one or more computer processors;
- one or more computer readable storage media;
- program instructions stored on the one or more computer readable storage media for execution by at least one of the one or more processors, the program instructions comprising:
- program instructions to generate a first set of directional arrows, wherein each directional arrow of a first set of directional arrows is associated with at least one location from a first set of locations, and wherein the first set of directional arrows is generated responsive to a first, second, and third parameters associated with the respective at least one location from the first set of locations;
- and
- program instructions to display the first set of directional arrows, wherein each directional arrow of the first set of directional arrows provide an indication of the first, second, and third parameters associated with the respective at least one location from the first set of locations, wherein the indication of the first, second, and third parameters provided by the display of the first set of directional arrows, comprises:
- a weight of the first set of directional arrows, a direction of the first set of directional arrows, a length of the first set of directional arrows, and a color of the first set of directional arrows.
