modify and expand the aforementioned list of Krygier (
1994
) which looked
only at data at nominal and ordinal scales.
Although there are strong practical disadvantages with using sound in
maps, there are a couple of specific scenarios and users where acoustic coding
can produce a significant additional value. On the other hand, only little
experiments have been conducted so far in order to understand and to
optimize the use of sound. To fill this gap, more usability research will be
necessary in the next few years.
