Abstract
The detectability of guide signs in a railroad station differs according to the spatial relation with pedestrians in motion. Based on the results of a sign detection experiment conducted in an actual station and because the global tendency of detectability includes the approach direction, this paper examines sign detectability using three spatial variables and three different directions of pedestrian motion. The results are applied to suggest appropriate sign planning in railroad stations.
