Gilles Bassiere:
hey, how is your research about the rendering quality of cartographic
servers going?

Subject: [OSGeo-Discuss] How to assess rendering quality?
Hi list,
I'm doing a comparative study of OpenSource cartographic servers (Mapserver,
Geoserver and Mapnik). Beside raw performance and features, I'd like to assess
the rendering quality, say how pretty produced maps are. Precisely, I'm
interested in the quality of the drawing work, my point is not about symbology,
nor styling of maps.
I have some problems to find a set of objective criteria I could benchmark my
servers against. So far, I have already identified the following:
- sharpness of details
- smoothness of lines
- uniformity of colors
I'm open to any comments. Do you think these criteria are consistent regarding
the purpose of my study? Does anyone have other criteria to suggest?
Regards
