Description
Current Approaches to Cognitive Cartography, Volume Nine emphasizes the growing importance of understanding cognitive structures in the use of modern cartographic media, a topic frequently expressed in current papers published by cartographers. Investigating cognitive impacts on map use requires established methods of experimental sciences to derive robust and reliable messages for the formation of theory in cartography Throughout the last decade, the international cartographic community has regularly highlighted the relevance of experimental studies for the future of a user-centered cartography. This book brings together current developments in the field of a user-oriented cognitive cartography.
