Title: Visualization Design of Transportation Education Games
Accession Number: 01659713
Record Type: Component
Abstract: Transportation researchers need to break the barriers of transportation area to foster the collaboration with researchers in other fields; transportation engineers need tools to communicate to the public effectively to make the change happens. Educational games about transportation engineering can illustrate the transportation concepts in an interactive and visual way to convey the knowledge in an engaging manner. There are games being developed by researchers to show transportation phenomenon. Visualization is one of the most important elements in an educational video game. However, there are no guidelines on how to design the visualization for the transportation education games. The authors have been actively developing video games for transportation engineering education. This paper presents how the authors designed the visualization during the developments and revisions of the games. This paper can be used as a guide for using the games the authors developed to communicate to the people outside of transportation area. It can also be used to guide developers to build new games for a specific transportation problem.
Supplemental Notes: This paper was sponsored by TRB committee ABJ95 Standing Committee on Visualization in Transportation.
