Cartographic Data Representation

Data should always be presented in a clear, accurate, unambiguous, and complete manner. If the map conception phase has not been carefully done, the map will probably be incomprehensible, even giving some false information. So, the objective of this lesson is to help you to structure ideas according to the map user needs, and construct a workflow.

Learning Objectives

  • Be able to produce well conceived maps
  • Know the workflow to communicate map information
  • Know how important the influence of the map user is on mapmaking
