Statistics for Thematic Cartography
Obtaining appropriate data is an important first step towards successful map communication. However, more important is the second stage: the processing you are going to perform on the data.
This learning unit will introduce you to various basic statistical techniques, which cartographers commonly use in mapping.

- Know why statistical applications are so essential in cartography.
- Be able to recognise the different levels of phenomena.
- Know how and when to standardise data.
