AntigenMap 3D: an online antigenic cartography resource

SUMMARY Antigenic cartography is a useful technique to visualize and minimize errors in immunological data by projecting antigens to 2D or 3D cartography. However, a 2D cartography may not be sufficient to capture the antigenic relationship from high-dimensional immunological data. AntigenMap 3D presents an online, interactive, and robust 3D antigenic cartography construction and visualization ...

Cartography, GIS and the World Wide Web

For this, my initial cartography and GIS report, I have selected a theme external to, but with implications for, both – the World Wide Web (WWW, or simply “the web”). According to its primary architect, the WWW “was developed to be a pool of human knowledge, which would allow collaborators in remote sites to share their ideas and all aspects of a common project” (Berners-Lee, et al., 1994, p. 7...

3D digital maps: New development in cartography for cultural heritage

This paper will demonstrate how new technologies in cartographic environment integrate acquisition, management and representation techniques for georefencing data processing. Moreover, there is an ever-growing demand for a more “representative” and “world widespread” digital cartography. More representative means the capabilities in describing physical phenomena but also social, economic and cu...

Molecular cartography of the human skin surface in 3D.

The human skin is an organ with a surface area of 1.5-2 m(2) that provides our interface with the environment. The molecular composition of this organ is derived from host cells, microbiota, and external molecules. The chemical makeup of the skin surface is largely undefined. Here we advance the technologies needed to explore the topographical distribution of skin molecules, using 3D mapping of...
