Kurzbeschreibung

Maps and atlases are created as soon as information on our geography has been clarified. They are used to find directions or to get insight into spatial relations. They are produced and used both on paper as well as on-screen. The Web is the new medium for spreading and using maps. This book explains the benefits of this medium from the perspective of the user, and the map provider. Opportunities and pitfalls are illustrated by a set of case-studies. A website accompanies the book and provides a dynamic environment for demonstrating many of the principles set out in the text, including access to a basic course in Internet cartography as well as links to other interesting places on the Web. Professor Kraak looks at basic questions such as "I have this data what can I do with it?" and discusses the various functions of maps on the web. Web Cartography also looks at the particularities of multidimensional web maps and addresses topics such as map contents (colour, text and symbols), map physics (size and resolution), and the map environment (interface design/site contents).

Synopsis

The World Wide Web has rapidly become a widespread means for the publication of geospatial data. It has earned this popularity since it is virtually platform independent can reach many users at minimal cost and is easy to update. More importantly, the web meets the increasing demand for customized geospatial data products. However, the visual dissemination of spatial data on the web creates special requirements for map design, and introduces new capabilities and pitfalls for interactive map applications.Web maps are first put into a broad context and specific characteristics of these maps are then examined from a user perspective. The various functions of maps on the Web are discussed in the context of the technical background and fundamental user questions such as what can be done with existing data. Web cartography also provides insight into the particularities of multi-dimensional web maps. Typical characteristics are explained clearly from the perspectives of static viewing and dynamic viewing. For each category, design considerations, based on cartographic principles, are discussed. Topics addressed include map contents, map physics and the map environment.

Technical terms are explained where necessary. For several time-sensitive topics such as traffic, weather and tourism, the status and future of web maps are discussed. Atlases and national mapping agencies are also covered. The website http:://kartoweb.itc.nl/webcartography/webbook accompanies the book. It provides a dynamic environment for demonstrating many of the principles set out in the text and includes access to a basic course on Web cartography. The book and website provide a text for students and professionals in the fields of cartography and GIS. The series of chapters are written by different people but worked together into a single text.
