DOWNLOAD EBOOKMaking maps dates back at least four thousand years and it is widely recognised that many maps are of great historical value and present a skilled method of summarising the real world on a sheet of paper. Less well known is the judgement involved in the selection and simplification of features, the complex transformation of space and the exacting standards which are needed in cartography. This book is primarily a tribute to Professor F.J. Ormeling, former President and Secretary/Treasurer of the ICA and gives a wide ranging review of the current status of cartography, how this status was attained and the way in which the subject is expected to evolve over the next decade. It is composed of two main sections. In the first, the present state of cartography in different countries is examined. The second section is a thematic view in which some of the major issues and developments in cartography are discussed in turn, including art and science in cartography, the character of historical cartography, the role of map making in developing countries, the impact of a possible ideal computer mapping facility and how cartography has changed in recent years. There are international contributions from authors distinguished and internationally recognised in cartography and related fields and who have had a significant input to the ICA.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis is the third book in this series written by some of the world's leading cartographers. This volume identifies the challenges facing cartography and hence cartographic education in the latter part of the 20th century. It introduces an important new theoretical concept - a New Cartography. There is a section on cartographic education in developing countries which has been written by authors from the Third World together with cartographers from the industrialized northern hemisphere with extensive experience in the field. Although this is not a teaching text it is of direct relevance to all colleges and universities teaching cartography especially to those responsible for the development of curriculum.
