AxialGen is a research prototype for automatically generating the axial map, which consists of the least number of the longest visibility lines (or axial lines) for representing individual linearly stretched parts of open space of an urban environment. Open space is the space between closed spaces such as buildings and street blocks. This paper aims to provide an accessible guide to software AxialGen, and the underlying concepts and ideas. We concentrate on the explanation and illustration of the key concept of bucket: its definition, formation and how it is used in generating the axial map. Keywords: Bucket, visibility, medial axes, axial lines, isovists, axial map
