Abstract:
Like any other area of cartography, forest cartography is evolving and changing. However, it should be noted that in Russia the form of presentation, content and design of forest cartographic products are strictly regulated by various legal acts, which makes this direction of cartography more conservative. The purpose of the study is to identify the main problems and directions for the development of forest cartography. The article presents a study of the current state of forest cartography in Russia, considers modern foreign developments used in forest cartography, and identifies the main problems that arise when creating forest cartographic products. The study identified the most promising methods and technologies, the introduction of which will accelerate the development of domestic forest cartography, among them the development of GIS analysis methods, the introduction of mobile GIS, the creation of digital twins of the forest and the addition of forest cartographic products with geospatial knowledge.

Abstract. Although cartographic products have been produced for thousands of years, cartography as a science has only been established in the early 20th century. Great works of cartography include, for instance, the conic map projections by Ptolemy, the Tabula Rogeriana by Idrisi, the Waldseemüller map, and the Mercator map. Numerous cartographers, predominantly mathematicians, have shaped the theory of map projections throughout the centuries.With the advent of geographic information systems (GIS) in the 1960s and the rapid developments of digital technologies, cartography found itself in the middle of an identity crisis. For some time, it was not clear whether cartography would become obsolete and be replaced by GIS mapping technologies or whether GIS is a novel manifestation of cartography. During this period various misconceptions about the role of maps and mapping as well as uncertainty about the future developments of mapping in general added to this confusion.This contribution elaborates the major characteristics of cartography versus other disciplines, in particular geography and GIS, and takes a look at possible future directions and developments with regard to the theory of cartography as well as novel and future display technologies. Personal observations of the author during his professional life since the early 1980s illustrate these developments.

Abstract:
Map is the basic language of geography and an indispensable tool for spatial analysis. But for a long time, maps have been regarded as an objective and neutral scientific achievement. Inspired by critical geography, critical cartography/GIS came into being with the goal of clarifying the discourse embedded in cartographic practice. Power relationship challenges the untested assumption in map representation that is taken for granted. After more than 40 years of debate and running in, this research field has initially shown an outline, and critical cartography/GIS has roughly formed two research directions: the deconstruction path mainly starts from the identity of cartography subject and the process of map knowledge production, and analyzes the inseparable relationship between cartography and national governance and its internal power mechanism respectively; the construction path mainly relies on cooperative mapping and anti-mapping to realize the reproduction of map data. Domestic critical cartography/GIS research has just started, and it is necessary to continue to absorb the achievements of critical geography and carry out research in different historical periods. The deconstruction research of different types of maps also needs to strengthen the in-depth bridging between the construction path and the deconstruction path, and to be more open to the public. Impartial map application research, and actively apply the research results to social practice.

Abstract:
The article is devoted to the review of the historical cartography development periods in the past and its current state. The study examines the development of historical cartography from traditional meth-ods of creating maps to digital ones. For this purpose, domestic and foreign publications of different years have been collected and studied, publications devoted to analytical reviews of the development of certain areas of historical cartography or the development of historical cartography for certain periods of time, individual historical cartographic works of different years, as well as such works them-selves. The article pays special attention to the current state of digital historical cartography, and also identifies specific examples of the use of GIS technologies in historical cartographic studies of socio-economic phenomena. In the course of the study, the authors applied comparative-historical and analytical-synthetic research methods. As a result, it is concluded that traditional paper maps and atlases were considered as means of providing information and were used in historical research mainly for visualization of historical data. And the use of GIS technologies makes it possible to display historical phenomena in layers, conduct spatial analysis, create derivative maps of geospatial knowledge that display the dynamics of state borders, population migration, etc.

Abstract:
This paper discusses an introductory cartography and GIS service learning course. The service learning experience, highlighted by a final mapping project and community presentation, resulted in 3,000 student-designed maps being distributed to community residents, a website of downloadable student maps, multiple student speaking engagements, and a sustained community-university collaboration. The course demonstrates the importance of applied geography in local communities and highlights the benefits of community-university partnerships for addressing social change. Such an applied geography experience offers an important twist on the conventional, introductory cartography course where students engage in pre-packaged lectures and labs, and are then asked to complete a final mapping project. Unlike the conventional approach, this service learning class experience allows students to use their creativity to demonstrate knowledge learned in the course and allows students to apply and present their geographic knowledge in a real-world setting to community members.

Abstract:
The development of science always depends on technological progress. Cartography is rapidly changing and developing with the introduction of new computer technologies, such as GIS and remote sensing of the Earth. Recently, there have been qualitatively new types of cartographic products, in particular 3D terrain models, which in cartography are becoming a universal, optimal and operational method for displaying terrain. The article discusses a method for creating a three-dimensional digital terrain model in the form of an irregular triangulation network based on SRTM data and GIS technology on the example of the Khenti aimag of Eastern Mongolia.

Abstract:
Nowadays we can clearly see the activeness of the methodological and technological aspects of the new geoinformation direction in the field of cartography. The development of modern mapping methods is closely related to the development of geoinformation systems and technologies. The importance of geoinformation cartography and geoinformation systems is significant in creating databases and digital maps based on GIS software instead of analog methods for creating maps. There are the most important tasks such as improvement of modern method in obtaining cartographic information, and development of ways to quickly transmit and distribute cartographic information about nature and society. The application of GIS technologies in the field of demographic cartography will lead to drastic changes in the scope of work, as well as improve product design and increase the accuracy as a result of the performed tasks. The study shows that there is a need to develop a new method for mapping a new generation based on GIS technology, reflecting demographic processes. This article will focus on creating a database for development of maps based on GIS technologies, rapid identification, monitoring spatial changes using data from aerospace and other sources, and development of demographic digital mapping methods based on GIS technologies. Mapping demographic processes based on GIS technologies aims at implementing a number of practical tasks and research related to population. Based on this, a systematic method has been developed to analyse the demographic situation in the southern region of the Republic of Uzbekistan, and a digital demographic map has been created by applying the developed method.

Abstract:
Plus de la moitié de la population mondiale vit de nos jours dans les villes. Cette proportion s'élève à 77.5% en France. La densité importante de la population urbaine provoque plusieurs problèmes environnementaux tels que les bruits, les canicules urbaines, les pollutions chimiques ou la pollution magnétique. Dans une ville, les habitants pourraient obtenir des informations sur ces phénomènes grâce aux infrastructures informatiques et au partage de l'information entre services techniques et citoyens. Si l'un des objectifs des villes intelligentes est d'améliorer la gestion des ressources - comme l'eau et l'électricité - un autre est de pouvoir contrôler jour après jour ce qui se passe dans la ville au niveau du climat et des pollutions en collectant des informations locales et en les affichant sur un portail public. Mais ces informations, généralement transmises sous forme de graphiques ou de cartes, ne sont pas faciles à interpréter. L’objectif de cette thèse est de proposer des solutions pour améliorer la représentation cartographique de phénomènes urbains dans leur contexte géographique afin que celle-ci soit facile à comprendre aussi bien pour les services techniques, que pour le grand public non spécialistes de ces phénomènes.Afin de faciliter la perception d’une carte de phénomène, nous proposons une représentation à différents niveaux de détail, une variété de choix de l’espace cartographique ; des symboles simples et adaptifs au phénomène et une identification automatique de zones particulières. Pour les niveaux de détail, nous adaptons la densité graphique aux différents niveaux de détail (optimisation préparatoire dans la base de données) et à l’échelle courante de visualisation (optimisation dynamique et interactive avec l’utilisateur). Pour le choix de l’espace cartographique, un phénomène peut être représenté sur l’ensemble de bâtiments, sur les rues ou sur une structure de géométrie quelconque saisie par l’utilisateur. Enfin pour l’identification automatique de zones particulières, nous identifions les valeurs extrêmes, dépassant le seuil de dangerosité ou les zones de forte dispersion de valeur importante, pour permettre à l’utilisateur de les localiser rapidement. Nous avons proposé aussi d’ajouter le concept de l’observateur et d’adapter la visualisation selon la position de l’observateur afin de diminuer la superposition entre les présentations 3D de différents niveaux de hauteur d’un phénomène, lorsqu’il varie en fonction de l’altitude (et qu’on dispose de ces données)
More than half of the world's population now lives in cities. This proportion is 77.5% in France. The high density of the urban population causes several environmental problems such as noise, urban heat waves, chemical pollution or magnetic pollution. In a city, the inhabitants could get all the information by the computer infrastructures and the information sharing between the citizens themselves. If one of the objectives of smart cities is to improve the management of resources - such as water and electricity - another is to be able to control day by day what is happening in the city in terms of climate and pollution by collecting local information and mapping it in the public portal of cartography. Although the link between civic services, the interactions between people and government institutions is very important, the concerned information, usually represented by graphics or maps, is not easy to for all people to understand and to interpret. Thus the objective of this thesis is to propose solutions to improve the representation of urban phenomena with their geographical context and at different levels of detail so that it becomes easy to understand for the general public.In order to facilitate the perception of a phenomenon map, we propose a representation at different levels of detail, from the most general to the most detailed and to adapt the graphic density to the level of detail (preparatory optimization in the database) and to the current visualization scale (dynamic and interactive optimization with the user); a various choices of the cartographic space, for example a phenomenon may be represented on the set of buildings or streets, or on any structure of geometry chosen by the user; simple and adaptive symbols to the phenomenon; and an automatic identification of particular zones: with extreme values, exceeding the threshold of dangerousness or with a large dispersion, this allows the user to quickly locate areas of interest throughout the visualization. We also proposed to add the concept of observer and adapt the visualization according to the position of the observer in order to reduce the superposition between the 3D presentations of different levels of height of a phenomenon, when it varies according to of the altitude (and that these data are available)

Abstract:
It has been realised in the GIS community that most 2D GISs are capable of handling 2D spatial data efficiently, but systems have had less success with 3D spatial data. This is reflected in the current GIS market place where systems which can handle 3D data are hardly available - due to several impediments in implementing such systems. This thesis attempts to address some of the impediments. The impediments which related to spatial data especially data representation, data structuring and data modelling using object-oriented (OO) techniques are the foci of this thesis. OO techniques are utilized because they offer several advantages over the traditional (i.e. structural) techniques in software development. In the aspect of spatial representation, several major representations are investigated, which then lead to identifying an appropriate representation both for 2D and 3D, that is triangular irregular network (TIN) data structures. 2D data is represented by a 2D TIN, and 3D data is represented by a 3D TIN (also called a tetrahedral network or TEN). Several algorithms were developed for the construction of the data structures where procedures such as distance transformation (DT) and Voronoi tessellations were utilized. Besides standard Delaunay triangulations, constrained triangulations were also developed, thus the inclusion of real world objects in the spatial data modelling can be facilitated. Four classes of real world objects are identified (i.e., point, line, surface, and solid objects). For the purpose of spatial data modelling of the four types of objects, a formal data structure (FDS) is utilized.

Abstract:
Digital maps of geographic areas are increasingly common in many types of workplace, in education and in the public domain. Their interactivity and visual features, and the complexity of geographic(al) information systems (GIS) which create, edit and manipulate them, create special cognitive demands on the end-user which are not present in traditional cartographic maps or in most human-computer interaction (HCI). This thesis reviews cross-disciplinary literature regarding cognitive aspects of viewing and interacting with digital maps. Data from an observational study of GIS use, including real-time recordings of normal workplace activities, was analysed using various approaches to examine the interactive and visual aspects of people's work. The implications for cartographic, psychological and HeI aspects of GIS are discussed, in the context of the actual tasks people perform with them (rather than the computationally advanced analyses assumed by most literature). The second phase of the research examined the spatial knowledge attained and used during this interaction. The relevance of specific concepts in cognitive psychology, and of factors that create individual differences in cognition, are discussed in depth, alongside work in environmental and educational psychology, cartography and geography. A controlled experiment examined the degree to which task characteristics induce a different spatial model or reference frame when viewing a digital map. It was shown that even novice users can switch between considering the map as an abstract geometric display or as a geographical representation, without affecting performance. However, tasks forcing subjects to focus entirely on the geometry rather than the geography did affect performance in a surprise post-test photograph identification task. Map users' mental model or reference frame is apparently affected by these task constraints; this has implications for GIS design and practice as well as for understanding spatial cognition The study also considered the role of expertise and other individual difference factors, although conclusions were limited by sample size. Further research issues are highlighted, particularly regarding the knowledge structures and spatial language used in interpreting digital maps.

Abstract:
Language maps provide illustrations of linguistic and cultural diversity and distribution, appearing in outlets ranging from textbooks and news articles to websites and wall maps. They are valuable visual aids that accompany discussions of our cultural climate. Despite the prevalent use of language maps as educational tools, little recent research addresses the difficult task of map construction for this fluid cultural characteristic. The display and analysis capabilities of current geographic information systems (GIS) provide a new opportunity for revisiting and challenging the issues of language mapping. In an effort to renew language mapping research and explore the potential of GIS, this dissertation is composed of three studies that collectively present a progressive work on language mapping. The first study summarizes the language mapping literature, addressing the difficulties and limitations of assigning language to space before describing contemporary language mapping projects as well as future research possibilities with current technology. In an effort to identify common language mapping practices, the second study is a map survey documenting the cartographic characteristics of existing language maps. The survey not only consistently categorizes language map symbology, it also captures unique strategies observed for handling locations with linguistic plurality as well as representing language data uncertainty. A new typology of language map symbology is compiled based on the map survey results. Finally, the third study specifically addresses two gaps in the language mapping literature: the issue of visualizing linguistic diversity and the scarcity of GIS applications in language mapping research. The study uses census data for the Washington, D.C. Metropolitan Statistical Area to explore visualization possibilities for representing the linguistic diversity. After recreating mapping strategies already in use for showing linguistic diversity, the study applies an existing statistic (a linguistic diversity index) as a new mapping variable to generate a new visualization type: a linguistic diversity surface. The overall goal of this dissertation is to provide the impetus for continued language mapping research and contribute to the understanding and creation of language maps in education, research, politics, and other venues.

Abstract:
Maps have longed been recognized as instruments of power and persuasion. With the recent proliferation of maps in the media and on the Internet has come an increasing desire among groups advocating for environmental and social change to have access to maps (the product) and mapping (the process) to more effectively promote their agendas. However, this is not as simple as it seems. Far from being neutral conduits of "truth," maps are constructed by a myriad of social interactions among heterogeneous actors (human and technical) that left unacknowledged can lead to an untapped potential of the power of maps. Adopting actor-network theory's (ANT) theoretical framework that accepts nonhuman entities as actors in the social, and its methodological protocols, this study contributes to the needed empirical evidence relating to the ways in which maps and mapping behave and function in society, particularly in the grassroots advocacy context and neighborhood scale, through a case study of the products, and thereby the process, of the Coalition for a Livable Future?s (CLF) Regional Equity Atlas four-year endeavor. The purpose of this study is to account for and expose the complexity of relations among data, technology, people, and organizations that underlie it and the ways in which these relations affected the atlas itself. Four interrelated themes emerge from this study. The first relates to CLF's contribution to equity mapping discourse including its participatory approach to equity mapping, its definition of equity, and the subsequent impacts of both of these things on the mapping process. The second relates more specifically to the contributions of the embedded ideologies that are integral to the GIS software that was used and the roles that they played. The third theme is the importance of process in community-based mapping projects and the recognition that they are social processes in the comprehensive sense that ANT theorists advocate. The fourth theme relates to how maps work, specifically, maps as maps versus the idea of maps.

Abstract:
“Mashups” are web-based maps that intermix user-created data with information gathered from multiple online sources. As part of the wave of “Web 2.0” technologies, mashups represent a shift toward distributed authoring and sharing of Internet content, complicating traditional modes of knowledge production. Mashups originated in the open source “hacker” movement and are now associated with the term “neogeography,” used to describe the practice of amateur mapmaking online. In this thesis I ask whether mashups facilitate a cartography that is more accessible and democratic, studying the ways in which mashup authors create alternative community or personal cartographies while remaining dependent on existing power structures for data and resources. I illuminate these issues through a series of examples, such as: mashups that render personal memories about places, maps created by activist groups to counter dominant representations of geography by governments or corporations, and websites that facilitate the collaborative creation and sharing of spatial knowledge within community groups. Contrasting these case studies with traditional paper cartography and GIS, as well as the professional online mapping technologies of the Geospatial Web (or GeoWeb), I explore how mashups attempt to represent personal, subjective, overlapping and contradictory perceptions of space and place. While enthusiastic claims about the ability of mashups to wrest mapmaking from state and corporate hands are currently overstated, I conclude that mashups do in fact provide new ways of collaboratively representing space whose implications are still to be determined.

Abstract:
La creciente automatización durante las últimas décadas ha ido invadiendo diversos ámbitos, tanto el científico, como el de la vida cotidiana. Esto no resulta ajeno en las Ciencias Geográficas. El incremento en el volumen y la complejidad de la información medio ambiental ha conducido al uso de las computadoras para el almacenamiento, manipulación y tratamiento de éstos. Entre las aplicaciones geográficas se tienen el empleo de sistemas de gestión de base de datos, aplicaciones estadísticas, la cartografía automatizada y lo más sofisticado se da en los Sistemas de Información Geográfica SIG. Son diversas las áreas y múltiples las aplicaciones de los Sistemas de Información Geográfica, así se tiene tanto en el ámbito del estudio del medio ambiente y recursos naturales, como en la Planificación urbana, Catastro, análisis de redes, análisis de mercado y Cartografía temática entre otras. Este documento contiene la experiencia de aplicación de un SIG en el caso concreto de la Micro-región del Colca, Caylloma (Arequipa). Se ha considerado conveniente dividir el presente trabajo en dos partes: l. Los Sistemas de Información Geográfica. 2. Aplicación a un caso concreto: Cuenca hidrográfica del Colca.   Recent automatisation of different aspects of scientific knowledge and practical  life forain are no to geography. The increment in volume, is well as complexity of environnemental data has favored computer use to keep, manipulate and process information. Among he software sed in geography, we have the data management systems, statistics programmes, automated cartography and the Geographic Information Systems (GIS). They are many ways in the study of physical and human space where the GIS are applicable. This paper shows a sample of GIS application to the Colca basin in Cayllorna, Arequipa. Based on Cartography documents exports and field I have elaborated a general map of soil aptitude.

Abstract:
Over the last two decades, advancements in analytical cartography have reduced the need for professional geomatics experts when creating maps. GIS software have greatly simplified the map creation process, allowing non-experts to make maps using many built-in tools. However, this has resulted in a lack of quality control and assessment when data is manipulated and processed towards developing maps. This also raises questions with regards to reliability, validity and objectivity of data, results and maps. In contrast, this paper presents a methodology for automating both the GIS analysis and Map Making processes using analytical cartography in a non-standard GIS environment. The work was done primarily in the R environment, open source software and programming, to replicate processes that were normally done using expensive proprietary software and many person hours. Applied in a case study to improve the workflow efficiency in precipitation index modelling, the developed system was found to improve on overall time by tenfold, the formats and number of products generated were more than doubled, the replicability of map layouts was greatly improved, and the published formats increased.

Abstract:
Nowadays cartography is more and more required by users, companies and government agencies. A lot of tasks need digital, updated and quality cartography: Civil work design, planning, landscaping, environmental impact, conservation, etc. This need of cartography is mostly solved by spatial data infrastructures and map servers that make downloading and getting maps easy. Later, using Geographical Information Systems (GIS) it is quite easy to perform queries and geoprocessing operations in order to get valuable information which is difficult to get with other tools. However slivers polygons are a serious problem. They can alter the results in spatial analysis, queries and map portray. A map with sliver polygons is a map with false polygons and therefore with errors. We need to remove them. Removing sliver polygons is simple once they have been located. The real problem is to manage to locate them. Some sliver polygons are small, others are large but in both cases sliver polygons are difficult to locate and tell them apart from other polygons. Scientists have used formulas to calculate the shape of objects for many years. Today there are dozens of formulas available that could be used in the characterization and location of polygons slivers. In this article many of these shape formulas are analyzed and conclusions are drawn on whether they can be used in locating sliver polygons.http://dx.doi.org/10.4995/CIGeo2017.2017.6567

Abstract:
The material remains of the First World War field-battles are gradually disappearing, especially in marginal mountain areas, due to negligence and changes in land coverage. The paper presents the first stage of an ongoing project, devoted to identifying the forgotten material features of war landscapes on the Trentino Alps, using a wide range of historical sources, such as cartography, aerial and ground photos, textual descriptions and field surveys. The case study chosen to test the methodology is a small area of the municipality of Trambileno, in the south of the Province of Trento. Different data from different sources are integrated in a GIS platform, in order to safeguard the memory and the location of cultural heritage, as well as to support future enhancement plans.

Abstract:
At the present stage, digital information technologies create a new education system focused on the global educational space. In general education schools, in connection with the adoption of the updated program, the section Geoinformatics and cartography provides for the use of developing a map-scheme, modeling and conducting small studies on the topic under study. As a result, digital technology has a place in geographical education. This is due to significant changes in the pedagogical and methodological approach in teaching geography and other disciplines. As a result, the education system has changed, the content of education has been updated, a new approach has appeared, a new attitude to geoinformation technologies in schools. The article discusses the importance of computer technologies in the education system, including the effectiveness and necessity of using geoinformation technologies. The article substantiates the relevance of the use of geoinformation technologies in the teaching of geography.
