| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The resarch member classified and evaluated Geopark maps that are used at 23 areas of Geopark in Japan. They carried out survey that using 3 questionnaires to the participants of geotours, guides, students, and specialists in geoscience and cartography, to know that best how to express topography. As a result of questionnaires, it is thought that people ask a map that can understand story of Geopark well. People prefer maps that can understand intuitively topography. Essential elements of Geopark maps are 1) how to express topography to understand geomorphology and geostory well, 2) thematic information such as geological maps and geomorphological maps.
The research member created some maps that have these elements. Based on the prototype map with new topographic expression, the revised geosite maps were printed and a questionnaire survey was conducted for new maps. As a result, the topographic expression of geosite maps was generally well received.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
ジオ資源に関する知識や関心をビジターへもたらしうる地図表現について検討し、それを実際のジオパークをモデルに改良されたジオパーク地図を試作し、その効果を実際に利活用したジオツアー参加者から引き出すというのは、これまで取り組まれてこなかった内容である。モデル地区のジオパーク以外への波及効果も期待され、一般国民のジオ資源への関心を地図情報を用いて高めることが出来れば、地学教育、地域活性化、地理空間情報社会そのものへの大きなインパクトも期待できる。
