Storytelling for making cartographic design decisions for climate change communication in the United States / Carolyn Fish in Cartographica, vol 55 n° 2 (Summer 2020)  

Public [article]  inCartographica > vol 55 n° 2 (Summer 2020) . - pp 69 - 84 Titre : Storytelling for making cartographic design decisions for climate change communication in the United States Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Carolyn Fish, Auteur Année de publication : 2020 Article en page(s) : pp 69 - 84 Note générale : Bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Rédaction cartographique [Termes IGN] carte thématique [Termes IGN] changement climatique Résumé : (Auteur) Recent research in cartography has described how maps can tell stories; however, little research has empirically evaluated how storytelling can guide how map design decisions are made. I argue that storytelling allows cartographers to decide on basic map design elements by narrowing the focus of a map. First, cartographers decide on the driving story. The story is then used as a guide for every design decision, from what data to search for and use to the design of symbolism within the map. This research focuses on the case of climate change communication in the United States. Empirical evidence based on interviews with map-makers at major media organizations and government agencies creating maps of climate change illustrates how storytelling as a process provided these cartographers with a way to effectively convey the multidimensional and complex impacts of climate change across multiple scales. It is this storytelling process that enables cartographers to better connect with readers to communicate the impacts of complex environmental problems such as climate change. The article concludes with implications for using storytelling as an alternative way to think about cartographic communication and the map design process.

Designing across map use contexts : a research agenda / Amy L. Griffin in International journal of cartography, vol 3 suppl 1 (May 2017)  

Public [article]  inInternational journal of cartography > vol 3 suppl 1 (May 2017) . - pp 90 - 114 Titre : Designing across map use contexts : a research agenda Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Amy L. Griffin, Auteur ; Travis White, Auteur ; Carolyn Fish, Auteur ; Beate Tomio, Auteur ; Haosheng Huang, Auteur ; et al., Auteur Année de publication : 2017 Article en page(s) : pp 90 - 114 Note générale : Bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Cartographie [Termes IGN] conception cartographique [Termes IGN] prise en compte du contexte [Termes IGN] recherche scientifique Résumé : (Auteur) The explosion of map use in the past few decades as part of everyday activities, accelerated through the digital production and dissemination of maps and the availability of low-cost, location-aware devices, has made the job of cartographers and map display designers more challenging. Yet, how do these recent changes affect effective map design? Can we accurately predict which designs will work for a given context? We investigate the concepts of design transferability and context and their potential to help us create map design outcomes that are effective for varying map use situations. We then present a model for operationalizing map use context to support evaluating map design transferability and pose several open research questions that need to be answered to support operationalizing map use context. This is followed by a research agenda that identifies research opportunities related to key research needs that will underpin transferable map design.
