Research On Visual Communication Of Information Graphic Design

With globalization and the advancement of information technology, information is increasing at a speed beyond imagination. Although information acquisition is no longer a hard task, but people’s ability to absorb information is limited. Once this limit is overstepped, the phenomenon of "information overload" will emerge. The audience will not only slow down in information acquisition, but also refuse to accept information. Information graphics can convey information accurately and vividly by utilizing graphics, and give play to the advantage of graphs over languages and text. Therefore, it meets the needs of development in this era to solve the problem by information graphics design.The application of information graphics design is particularly important in the field of modern cartography. As a scientific and visualized artistic medium, maps transform concrete objects into a meaningful and identifiable abstract graphic symbol system.The map has a more systematic research on the design of information in foreign countries.How to express and convey the large amount of clutter information with the aid of vision to be orderly, systematic and integration in the limited graphics.This topic is based on the studies of the visual communication of information graphics design, and puts the theories into practice by designing an urban cultural traffic map for Changsha in combination with practical cases.Further research and exploration the specific method of informati on graphic design and some problems should be paid attention to.This paper use the theoretical analysis and practical case law.On the basis of visual information graphic design and application scope of the comprehensive interpretation of, the visual elements are analyzed, of information graphic design of visual effective communication are studied, and exploratory inductive design conditions and methods of information and graphics visualization, then to Changsha City cultural map as the leading practice object, which mainly solves the information in the graph to the visual processing a large number of complex, and to fit the human cognitive habits and completely reflect the things of significance.The graphic transmit to the reader vividly with scientific and accurate and easy to read.
