Abstract: Electronic map is a new kind of map product. There is no uniform criterion and standard for its making. Therefore, it is necessary to study the laws and rules of electronic map design and production. This article discussed the strategy for the electronic map browsing through two aspects: interface design and the map information browsing design. Some strategic methods proposed in the article are serviceable and have the guidance significance to all kinds of electronic maps design. These strategies are not only suitable for the common electronic map design but also suitable for the design of touching-type electronic map, web electronic map and so on.
