This study-experiment analyses the syntactic and semantic ties among images, texts and maps by using a blend of Geomatics and Linguistics techniques. Specifically, this work deals with the construction of a map on the basis of a written text representing a pictorial description of a panoramic mountain view. The aims are to demonstrate the aforementioned linkages and to measure the quality results in quantitative terms: the whole procedure is performed in seven steps (described in the introduction) and it closes with a final statistical evaluation. In order to achieve this task, a photograph was taken from the top of Mount San Giorgio, in Switzerland (Canton of Ticino), near Lake Lugano.

Abstract

This study-experiment analyses the syntactic and semantic ties among images, texts and maps by using a blend of Geomatics and Linguistics techniques. Specifically, this work deals with the construction of a map on the basis of a written text representing a pictorial description of a panoramic mountain view. The aims are to demonstrate the aforementioned linkages and to measure the quality results in quantitative terms: the whole procedure is performed in seven steps (described in the introduction) and it closes with a final statistical evaluation. In order to achieve this task, a photograph was taken from the top of Mount San Giorgio, in Switzerland (Canton of Ticino), near Lake Lugano.
