“…In terms of representing non-visual stimuli of landscapes, it is a difficult challenge to grasp and 'display' the specific features helping to transport the multidimensionality and multisensory composite of the landscape. Traditional approaches of cartography often implied a 'visual translation' of this composite, as landscapes comprising other sensory dimensions were often only graphically represented (Dodt et al 2017;Lauriault and Lindgaard 2006;Papadimitriou et al 2009, Müller et al 2001. Even if non-visual map elements were incorporated, they were usually linked with a 2D or highly generalized 3D visual representation of a landscape (see examples in chapter 2, incl.…”

“…Krygier's idea of cartographically representing ordinal and nominal (geographical) data using sound features, i.e. spatio-temporal auditory map animations, was published at a time where cartography and neighbouring disciplines rapidly shifted from analogue to digital solutions (MacEachren 2004;Müller et al 2001;Müller and Laurini 1997). The formation of information societies, going along with the computerization of the job market and private households, had caused the fast and competitive development of digital (multi-)media products as well as mass-market software.…”

Since the mid-1990s, sound has been discussed and used in multimedia cartography. There are four main variants of auditory map elements that have been established in the theory and practice of audiovisual cartography, i.e. abstract sounds/abstract sound sequences, speech, music and, especially, audiorealistic sequences representing so-called "soundscapes". In cartography, soundscapes are often addressed in large-scale representations. The term originates in multidisciplinary landscape research. Empirical findings of landscape research, and especially those of social constructivist landscape research, have shown the relevance of non-visual stimuli for people's individual impressions and meanings of the experienced landscape. Amongst the non-visual landscape dimensions, the auditory dimension is the most prominent one. As 3D cartography offers new methods and techniques of designing and experiencing highly realistic, incl. photo-and audiorealistic landscape representation, this discipline becomes more and more interesting for simulating and presenting multisensory landscapes and for presenting the results of empirical findings in landscape research. After an introduction to traditional means of audiovisual cartography and the relevance of auditory stimuli for social constructivist approaches of landscape research, a modern software-based method is presented which highlights the opportunity to imbed 3D sound data representing a location's soundscape into audiovisual 3D environments in Virtual Reality (VR). It is technically based on the cross-platform game engine Unity3D. ZusammenfassungAudiovisuelle Kartographie: Etablierte und neue Methoden zur Repräsentation von Klanglandschaften Seit Mitte der 1990er Jahren wird die akustische Dimension in der Multimediakartographie diskutiert und eingesetzt. Seither haben sich hauptsächlich vier Ausprägungen durchgesetzt, die als akustische Kartenelemente verwendet werden: abstrakte Töne und Tonfolgen, Sprache, Musik und audiorealistische Sequenzen zur Darstellung so genannter soundscapes (dt. "Klanglandschaften"). In der Kartographie beziehen sich Darstellungen von Klanglandschaften häufig auf großmaßstäbige Raumausschnitte. Der Begriff entstammt der multidisziplinären Landschaftsforschung. Empirische Erkenntnisse der Landschaftsforschung, insbesondere der sozialkonstruktivistischen Landschaftsforschung verdeutlichen, dass nicht-visuelle Reize der Landschaft die individuelle Interpretation der erfahrenen Landschaft maßgeblich beeinflussen. Unter den nichtvisuellen Landschaftsdimensionen gilt die akustische Dimension als bedeutendste. Aktuelle Entwicklungen zu Methoden und Techniken der 3D-Kartographie bieten Möglichkeiten zur hochrealistischen Gestaltung und Erfahrung audio-visueller 3D-Landschaften. Dies kann die Landschaftsforschung durch moderne multisensorische Darstellungsformen sowie Ergebnispräsentationen unterstützen. Dieses Paper führt ein in traditionelle Darstellungsvarianten der audiovisuellen Kartographie und diskutiert die Bedeutung der Klanglandschaften für die ...

“…For more than 25 years, approaches of audiovisual map design have been discussed in cartography (e.g., Brauen 2014;Dickmann 2001;Kraak and Ormeling 2010;Krygier 1994;MacEachren 2004;Müller et al 2001;Schiewe 2015;Schito and Fabrikant 2018;Taylor and Lauriault 2001;Tyner 2014). Thanks to digital visualization techniques that have become part of the mass media market, many sophisticated approaches have been made so far to show the thematic applications and methods of cartography including sound .…”

Audio files entered cartography about 25 years ago. Since the mid-1990s, several examples of audiovisual maps have been created and published. These maps cover a diverse range of applications. In terms of the sound elements implemented, four characteristic variants were mainly used: abstract sounds/sound sequences, language recordings, and music and recordings/ simulations of the real soundscape. To built audiovisual maps technically, several tools of animation software solutions were intensively explored. The rising importance of the World Wide Web also increased the demand for new and modern web-based approaches of multimedia cartography. One of the core technologies of the Internet is the programming language JavaScript (JS). The language is often associated with the so-called libraries which are applied programming packages pre-written for particular purposes. In cartography, one of the most popular and widely used JS libraries is leaflet.js. This open-source library is known for its simplicity and, meanwhile, it also supports a straightforward integration of multimedia content, such as audio files. It also teams up with HTML5 and CSS3. This paper intends to give a workflow focused on how to create individual audiovisual web mapping applications based on the contemporary options offered by leaflet.js.
