This paper addresses the challenges of translating pivotal military symbols like double arrows onto 2D digital maps, particularly when automation is essential. It proposes a comprehensive method integrating data structure, user workflow, and algorithms to generate tactically aligned, balanced, and visually appealing double arrows for military 2D digital maps. Experimental validation affirms its efficacy in meeting tactical requisites and aesthetic standards. Additionally, it outlines avenues for future research to further enhance and broaden the applicability of this method. In essence, this study presents a robust solution for the automated generation of double arrows on 2D digital military maps, marking a significant step in advancing automated symbolization for military planning.
