    Evaluating the impact of visualization of risk upon emergency route-planning
    (Taylor & Francis, 2019) Cheong, Lisa; Kinkeldey, Christoph; Burfurd, Ingrid; Bleisch, Susanne; Duckham, Matt
    This paper reports on a controlled experiment evaluating how different cartographic representations of risk affect participants’ performance on a complex spatial decision task: route planning. The specific experimental scenario used is oriented towards emergency route-planning during flood response. The experiment compared six common abstract and metaphorical graphical symbolizations of risk. The results indicate a pattern of less-preferred graphical symbolizations associated with slower responses and lower-risk route choices. One mechanism that might explain these observed relationships would be that more complex and effortful maps promote closer attention paid by participants and lower levels of risk taking. Such user considerations have important implications for the design of maps and mapping interfaces for emergency planning and response. The data also highlights the importance of the ‘right decision, wrong outcome problem’ inherent in decision-making under uncertainty: in individual instances, more risky decisions do not always lead to worse outcomes.

    Target Sustainability Design. Application of sustainability to the target value design method
    (Institut Digitales Bauen FHNW, 29.06.2023) Olender, Margarete; Rosen, Anja
    Tight investment budgets and high demands on sustainability lead to the classic conflict of objectives in projects. Especially in Target Value Design (TVD), the focus lays strongly on cost compliance. As a result, environmental goals have little chance of being achieved if they are viewed as an adjunct to functionality and quality. Even short-term consideration of LCA factors or energy efficiency in the early stages of design cannot resolve the trade-off between economic and environmental goals. Consequently, it is unclear how to make decisions when environmental and economic goals appear to be incompatible. It is also unclear how to incorporate social factors into TVD. Target Sustainability Design (TSD) was developed to address these issues. To do this, TVD has been broken down into its components and combined with the factors of strong sustainability in such a way that environmental and social goals become an integral part of the TSD methodology. The goals of all three dimensions of sustainability are not at odds with each other when using the TSD method, but can only be achieved together. This paper presents the composition of TSD and illustrates how it works with a case study.
