Recent Developments in Cartography and Display Technologies

Dear Colleagues,

Cartography has undergone dramatic changes in recent years. In less than 30 years, traditional cartographic technologies have virtually disappeared. At the same time, spatial data and visualization of such data are ubiquitous and, due to emerging new digital technologies, cartography has undergone a process of democratization. This development opens new paths of distributing spatial information, even though established principles of symbolization and mapping techniques are still essential for effective cartographic communication.

Currently, cartography is facing new challenges, such as displaying complex spatial data on mobile devises, variable scales, sound or 3D visualization, to name just a few.

You are invited to contribute to this Special Issue of the International Journal for Geo-Information which is focusing on recent developments in cartography and display technologies. Contributions should be of theoretical or empirical nature, highlighting new, innovative or thought-provoking aspects of cartography and display technologies.

Dr. Julia Siemer

Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-anonymized peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. ISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 1900 CHF (Swiss Francs).
