Of maps, cartography and the geography of the International Cartographic Association / Menno-Jan Kraak in International journal of cartography, vol 3 suppl 1 (May 2017)  

Public [article]  inInternational journal of cartography > vol 3 suppl 1 (May 2017) . - pp 9 - 31 Titre : Of maps, cartography and the geography of the International Cartographic Association Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Menno-Jan Kraak, Auteur ; Sara Irina Fabrikant, Auteur Année de publication : 2017 Article en page(s) : pp 9 - 31 Note générale : Bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Cartographie [Termes IGN] carte Résumé : (Auteur) In this contribution, we first focus on maps as landmarks of cartographic innovation in the context of societal and technical developments in history. This historical analysis stimulated us to offer a new definition for the map that reflects our intention to provide a succinct and flexible, yet inclusive and sustainable definition of our discipline for years to come. We then turn to cartography itself, by analyzing the sustainability of past and current disciplinary definitions, as proposed by its leading professional body, the International Cartographic Association (ICA). In the fourth section, we then go on to analyze the structure and activities of the ICA over the recent past, with the aim to further understand the professional development of the cartographic discipline. Finally, we also consider how the geography of the ICA, that is, the geographic origins of the leading members of the organization, including the executive board members and the chairs of ICA Commissions and Working Groups, might have influenced the shaping of the cartographic discipline.

Geospatial big data and cartography : research challenges and opportunities for making maps that matter / Anthony C. Robinson in International journal of cartography, vol 3 suppl 1 (May 2017)

New computational and technical paradigms for cartography are accompanying the rise of geospatial big data. Additionally, the art and science of cartography needs to focus its contemporary efforts on work that connects to outside disciplines and is grounded in problems that are important to humankind and its sustainability. Following the development of position papers and a collaborative workshop to craft consensus around key topics, this article presents a new cartographic research agenda focused on making maps that matter using geospatial big data. This agenda provides both long-term challenges that require significant attention and short-term opportunities that we believe could be addressed in more concentrated studies.

User studies in cartography : opportunities for empirical research on interactive maps and visualizations / Robert Emmett Roth in International journal of cartography, vol 3 suppl 1 (May 2017)  

Public [article]  inInternational journal of cartography > vol 3 suppl 1 (May 2017) . - pp 61 - 89 Titre : User studies in cartography : opportunities for empirical research on interactive maps and visualizations Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Robert Emmett Roth, Auteur ; Arzu Çöltekin, Auteur ; Homero Fonseca Filho, Auteur ; Amy L. Griffin, Auteur ; Andreas Hall, Auteur ; et al., Auteur Année de publication : 2017 Article en page(s) : pp 61 - 89 Note générale : Bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Termes IGN] carte interactive [Termes IGN] lecture de carte [Termes IGN] visualisation de données [Vedettes matières IGN] Géovisualisation Résumé : (Auteur) The possibility of digital interactivity requires us to reenvision the map reader as the map user, and to address the perceptual, cognitive, cultural, and practical considerations that influence the user’s experience with interactive maps and visualizations. In this article, we present an agenda for empirical research on this user and the interactive designs he or she employs. The research agenda is a result of a multi-stage discussion among international scholars facilitated by the International Cartographic Association that included an early round of position papers and two subsequent workshops to narrow into pressing themes and important research opportunities. The focus of our discussion is epistemological and reflects the wide interdisciplinary influences on user studies in cartography. The opportunities are presented as imperatives that cross basic research and user-centered design studies, and identify practical impediments to empirical research, emerging interdisciplinary recommendations to improve user studies, and key research needs specific to the study of interactive maps and visualizations.

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

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.

Persistent challenges in geovisualization – a community perspective / Arzu Çöltekin in International journal of cartography, vol 3 suppl 1 (May 2017)  

Public [article]  inInternational journal of cartography > vol 3 suppl 1 (May 2017) . - pp 115 - 139 Titre : Persistent challenges in geovisualization – a community perspective Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Arzu Çöltekin, Auteur ; Susanne Bleisch, Auteur ; Gennady Andrienko, Auteur ; Jason Dykes, Auteur Année de publication : 2017 Article en page(s) : pp 115 - 139 Note générale : Bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Termes IGN] recherche scientifique [Vedettes matières IGN] Géovisualisation Résumé : (Auteur) Over four workshops, we collected community input on what people considered as persistent challenges in geovisualization with the participation of 72 experts from various sub-domains of geographic information science and technology. We categorize and analyze this bottom-up input, and contrast it with the previously published research challenges based on five research agenda papers (top-down). We observe certain overlaps but also some interesting differences between the top-down and bottom-up approaches. A synthesis of the two suggests three major issues as persistent challenges: (1) a better understanding of the scope of our domain, how it interacts with other domains, and how to make this happen, (2) a systematic understanding of human factors, (3) a ‘practicable’ set of guidelines that matches the visualization types to task types, and guides the practitioner to design geovisualizations that are appropriate and helpful to the user. Distinguishing persistent from important, we discuss why the identified challenges are persistent, and draw recommendations for action based on our observations and interpretations. We believe these findings will help building a stronger, better-grounded research agenda for our community.
