Small display cartography is one of the most important subjects of the cartographers since the microcomputer technology develops. Navigation map design for different purposes is considered in this concept. In this paper, map design requirements for navigation and its constraints were explained in terms of small display cartography. Maps used for navigation purposes examined in terms of Multiple...

New approach to cartographic modeling based on integration of scientiic visualization and computer cartography is presented. This approach moves cartography from 2D static maps to cartographic modeling of landscape as a complex dynamic system in 3D space and time. visualization INTRODUCTION As the result of a revolution in technologies for collection of information about the Earth, large volume...

This chapter provides an introduction to this book on Cognitive and Linguistic Aspects of Geographic Space—New Perspectives on Geographic Information Research. As background we provide historical information for the Las Navas 1990 meeting and citation statistics regarding the resulting book and its chapters. We also review the major intellectual influences on our field at that time from differe...

Technological progress has touched practically all spheres of human activity.

Cartography changed lot today. Making geographical discoveries, mankind from very ancient maps protoplans came mathematical cartography,...

In the last 5 years, new techniques are conquering the internet and the web mapping domain. New input devices such as multitouch devices with an interesting potential for cartographic navigation applications appeared, while mobile devices are used for Location Based Services and to access the web. Generally, web cartography shifted to a distributed and service-oriented cartography, serving indi...
