This comprehensive and well-established cartography textbook covers the theory and the
practical applications of map design and the appropriate use of map elements. It explains …

Our research goal was to determine which choropleth classification methods are most
suitable for epidemiological rate maps. We compared seven methods using responses by …

We provide a research agenda for the International Cartographic Association's Commission
on Visualization and Virtual Environment Working Group on Cognitive and Usability Issues …

We present an approach to the process of constructing knowledge through structured
exploration of large spatiotemporal data sets. First, we introduce our problem context and …

The issue of sound in a book on visualization may at first seem incongruous. There is,
however, evidence to support the claim that sound is a viable means of representing and …

When it comes to designing animated maps, the bottleneck is no longer the hardware, the
software, or the data–it is the limited visual and cognitive processing capabilities of the map …

Maps and geographic information systems (GISystems) both encode spatial relationships in
structured formal representations. These representations enable shared understanding of …

This paper draws on research from geography and psychology to explain how people learn
and remember both reference and thematic maps. The review describes how prior …

For mapmakers, animating maps presents an amplified cartographic challenge. Because
animated maps are difficult and expensive to make—even with today's powerful software …

Geovisualization refers to the visual exploration, analysis, synthesis and presentation of
geospatial data. This paper presents findings from research that has focused on developing …
