Classification and Application of Cartographic Animation
نویسنده
چکیده
The development of a definition and classification scheme for cartographic animation is now warranted, since focus on the visualization method increased during the 1990s. This article offers a comprehensive definition of animation, distinguishing between animation, slide shows, multimedia, and hypermedia. In addition, a classification system identifies and offers specific characteristics for four different methods or types of cartographic animation: time, areal, thematic, and process.
