Formal Presentations
Cartography has been called "A discipline in transformations." The very nature of cartographic representation involves gathering spatial information and then subjecting it to transformations of dimension, scaling, scale, geometry and symbolization before the information is ready for viewing and interpretation.
In this seminar we will explore the transformational view of
cartography using the approach of analytical cartography. Students are expected to read material in advance, and come to class prepared for in-depth discussion of cartographic research. A term paper will be required on a topic of the students choice.
Weekly reading assignments include various papers and book chapters.
These will be circulated in class.
