Description
The first book to examine how map design is integrated with modern views of information and graphic communication in both the applied and theoretical senses. Some of the world's most eminent cartographers discuss the "grammer" and "syntax" of the cartographic language in light of recent theoretical, practical and technological developments. This title examines the perceptual processes involved in and the opportunities opened up by new technology, as well as maps for special purposes such as for the visually impaired or children. Applications of original research into map use and understanding are included plus the special topic of "interactive" and "live" maps. - from Amzon
