Descriere
This fourth edition serves as an excellent introduction to general cartographic principles and as an examination of the best ways to optimize the visualization and use of spatio-temporal data. It discusses the art, science, and technology of making and using maps, and also examines the societal and institutional framework related to mapmaking.
