Multimedia Cartography provides a contemporary overview of theoretical issues related to multimedia mapping and the design and production elements that are unique to this form of cartography. The proliferation of interactive multimedia products on CD-ROM and the Internet, via the World Wide Web, has generated an immense interest in multimedia mapping products. The approach to producing interactive multimedia 'maps' is quite unique and there has been an upsurge of interest in developing methodologies that best exploit both the technology and communication effectiveness of multimedia mapping. The book has been written for professional cartographers interested in moving into multimedia mapping, for cartographers already involved in producing multimedia titles who wish to discover the approaches that other practitioners in multimedia cartography have taken and for students and academics in the mapping sciences and related geographical fields wishing to update their knowledge about current issues related to cartographic design and production. It provides a new avant-garde approach to cartography - one based on the exploitation of the many 'rich media' components that multimedia offers.
