Abstract
For design index of the map style sign to provide variable road information, experiments were conducted to measure comprehensibility of the sign, and so on. The design point was that the detour was animated and driver’s cognition was considered. As a result, the desirable presentation style of the detour was gradation animation, and, in this connection, the jam-up area should not be animated. The recommended size of letters, route marks, and pictograms was smaller than the current legal size in Japan. The readily available guideline of design of the map style sign was presented.

Principles of Design of Map Style Sign Displaying Detour.

The design point was that the detour was animated and driver’s cognition was considered. As a result, the desirable presentation style of the detour was gradation animation, and, in this connection, the jam-up area should not be animated.
