This new Handbook unites cartographic theory and praxis with the
principles of cartographic design and their application. It offers
a critical appraisal of the current state of the art, science, and
technology of map-making in a convenient and well-illustrated guide
that will appeal to an international and multi-disciplinary
audience. No single-volume work in the field is comparable in terms
of its accessibility, currency, and scope. The Routledge Handbook
of Mapping and Cartography draws on the wealth of new scholarship
and practice in this emerging field, from the latest conceptual
developments in mapping and advances in map-making technology to
reflections on the role of maps in society. It brings together 43
engaging chapters on a diverse range of topics, including the
history of cartography, map use and user issues, cartographic
design, remote sensing, volunteered geographic information (VGI),
and map art. The title's expert contributions are drawn from an
international base of influential academics and leading
practitioners, with a view to informing theoretical development and
best practice. This new volume will provide the reader with an
exceptionally wide-ranging introduction to mapping and cartography
and aim to inspire further engagement within this dynamic and
exciting field. The Routledge Handbook of Mapping and Cartography
offers a unique reference point that will be of great interest and
practical use to all map-makers and students of geographic
information science, geography, cultural studies, and a range of
related disciplines.
