Visualizing Information Resources in the Conditions of Digitalization of the Field of Knowledge: An Overview

  • Published:
Scientific and Technical Information Processing Aims and scope

Abstract

In this article, the specific features of the subject of knowledge under the conditions of digital culture are considered on the basis of epistemological and cyber-psychological research. Requirements for presenting information web resources with regard to the transformation a subject of knowledge undergoes as a digital subject are substantiated. This article reveals the lack of unity of the principles of energy efficiency and maximum entropy in the presentation of information web resources and insufficient visual quality of this presentation. A need for development of integrated information resource cartographic web services as forms of representing digital information for the field of knowledge is shown, as well as the advantages of these services.
