the particular need, demand, question, or problem

  • f a

human user is often taken into account only when the system has been built.

slide-9
SLIDE 9

How can we unleash the potential of spatial information?

slide-10
SLIDE 10

How can we make sure that spatial data is really applicable for governments, for decision makers, for planners, for citizens through applications, products, and systems, which are not forcing them to adapt to the system but are easy to use and efficiently support the human user?

slide-11
SLIDE 11

Maps and Cartography are key.

slide-12
SLIDE 12

Think of a world without maps..

slide-13

How would we answer space-related questions?

How would we support spatial behaviour?

How would we enable spatial thinking, reasoning, decision making, planning?

Cartography?

cartography is about efficient communication of

spatial information by creation and use of maps anytime, anywhere

slide-27

Implications

cartography is about efficient communication of spatial information by creation and use of maps anytime, anywhere User! Abstraction! Design! Cognition!

slide-28
SLIDE 28

Implications

cartography is about efficient communication of spatial information by creation and use of maps anytime, anywhere Data handling and management! GI Science!

Strategies

  • Research
  • Education
  • Organisations

Research

creation and use of maps anytime, anywhere  real-time  ubiquitous  media-adequate  personalised  well designed

International Map Year 2015

The main purpose of the International Map Year (IMY), to be launched at the 28th International Cartographic Conference in Rio de Janeiro, is to expose the importance of maps and geographic information in human society.

slide-39
SLIDE 39

What are the specific purposes of IMY?

  • make maps more visible to citizens in a global context
  • give all an opportunity to learn more about associated

geospatial sciences

  • show how maps can be used in society
  • encourage all to experience how information technology

can be used in acquiring and handling geographic information, and how it is possible to produce one’s own maps

  • demonstrate the necessity of a sustainable development of

geographic information infrastructures.
