GET LOSTExplore the World in Map IllustrationsBefore GPS systems and Google Maps were invented, folded paper maps and guidebooks were always our trusty companions while on the road. While paper maps are becoming increasingly obsolete, there is more to cartography than just bearings and scales. Illustrated maps hone the ability to bring a place to life through vivid drawings, leaving a unique impression filled with the illustrator's own experiences.From iconic landmarks to hidden shortcuts, GET LOST takes readers on a journey by allowing them to explore new places through the eyes of illustrators.Bron : https://victionary.com/products/get-lost?variant=44783763456242

Around the World in 80 Ways offers a (sometimes opinionated) discussion of 80 data-driven maps of our planet. Taken together, the maps tell a story about the physical world; about the impact our species is having on the world; and about how people live in the world - or at least how we lived immediately before the emergence of Covid-19. The maps lie. All maps lie. But the origins of the deceptions are explained, the data sources are signposted and referenced, and the readers are shown how to create their own maps using freely available software. The reader is thus armed with the tools needed to explore local, national or world data - on topics ranging from science to society; environment to entertainment; wealth to wellbeing - a valuable skill in an age when certain politicians are happy to refer to "alternative facts" and media outlets deliver data visualizations that sometimes mislead as much as inform.

De Atlas van de aarde en de mens combineert de nieuwste wetenschappelijke inzichten over het leven op aarde met de meest moderne cartografie.* de geschiedenis van de aarde en de mens in 300 fullcolour-kaarten* van de oerknal en het ontstaan van de mens tot aan de industriële revolutie en de wereld van vandaag* met de nieuwste ontdekkingen uit de archeologie, biologie, aardrijkskunde en geschiedenis* bij elke kaart een verhelderende tekst met fascinerende achtergronden en inzichten. Van alle planeten in het heelal beschikt de aarde - voor zover wij weten - over een unieke eigenschap: het is de thuisbasis van leven. Te midden van alle levensvormen op aarde is de mens erin geslaagd andere soorten te overheersen en de planeet naar zijn hand te zetten. Een indrukwekkend overzichtswerk voor iedereen die wil weten waar we vandaan komen en hoe we werden wie we zijn.

This volume provides a framework for evaluating geospatial software for participatory mapping. The evaluation is based on ten key indicators: ethics, cost, technical level, inclusiveness, data accuracy, data privacy, analytical capacity, visualization capacity, openness, and accessibility (i.e., mobile friendly or offline capabilities). Each application is evaluated by a user and cross analyzed with specific case studies of the software's real-world application. This framework does not discriminate against assessing volunteered geographic information (VGI) applications, as a form of participatory mapping, in circumstances that its application is spearheaded by underrepresented groups with the intent to empower and spark political or behavioral change within formal and informal institutions. Each chapter follows a strict template to ensure that the information within the volume can be updated periodically to match the ever-changing technological environment. The book covers twelve different mapping applications with the goal of creating a comparative evaluation framework that can be easily interpreted by convening institutions and novice users. This will also help identify gaps in software for participatory mapping which will help to inform application development in the future and updates to current geospatial software.
