Confirm origin and destination
Choose the use case first, such as an invitation, store guide, or event notice, then verify the exact origin and destination addresses. Compare building names and exit numbers with an official map and on-site signs. If several origins are needed, publish separate versions rather than crowding one map.
Simplify roads and landmarks
Keep only the intersections and bends needed for navigation, reducing minor alleys and buildings. Select landmarks that visitors can identify on site, such as a station, major junction, or park. Avoid repeating similar icons and make the destination marker visually distinct.
Show route and direction
Draw the recommended route as one continuous line with consistent arrows. Provide separate versions when walking, driving, and public-transit routes differ. Match turns and exits to the actual travel direction, and do not rotate north without a clear cue. Add only verified distance or time during editing.
Edit for each channel
For mobile invitations, keep origin and destination visible on a small screen; for print, preserve trim-safe margins. Distinguish routes with line patterns and icons as well as color. Insert addresses, phone numbers, and station names as editable layers instead of asking the image model to render them.
Verify before distribution
Compare the draft with an official map, current exit information, and on-site photos, then test the route in person when possible. Check construction, closures, one-way streets, entrances, and parking. Test every link and QR destination, record the revision date and owner, and distribute only the approved version.
