Public information graphic symbols are essential visual elements in the public information guidance system, and they have the function of conveying guidance information. Only by standardizing the design and representation of graphic symbols that play a key role in conveying information can we ensure that graphic symbols are clear, eye-catching, easy to understand, and Easy to remember, achieving the purpose of accurately and quickly transmitting information. GB/T 16903 "Rules for the Representation of Graphical Symbols for Signs" is compiled to establish the design and representation rules of graphic symbols for signs. The document is intended to consist of two parts.

1.Design principles and requirements for public information graphic symbols. Aims to establish the design principles and requirements for public information graphic symbols. Based on the general principles and methods, and specifying the requirements that need to be followed, establish corresponding rules for the representation of graphic symbols.
