Imaging of geochemical data, by BGS NI
This document discusses mapping of geochemical data in soils in Northern Ireland using two different interpolation methods: inverse distance weighting (IDW) and interpolation within geological boundaries based on soil parent material. It finds that the parent material method produces more accurate maps for potentially harmful elements like chromium, nickel, and arsenic when evaluated using a holdout validation method. Maps of Northern Ireland are shown comparing the two methods and highlighting areas where levels of chromium, nickel, and arsenic exceed regulatory guidelines.

A common mapping symbology across national security stakeholders during the 2...British Cartographic Society
The author notes that previous attempts at standardizing symbology across police forces failed. The games provided an opportunity to create a common language for a web-based geographic information portal. The symbology scope was to use existing base map symbols and design new ones. Some obstacles included tight timelines and subjective feedback. Examples of borrowed, new, and police-specific symbols are shown. The successes so far include positive feedback and police requests to use the symbols. The legacy could be the symbols becoming a national standard.3 d visualisation of information
1) The document discusses challenges with 3D visualization of geographic and mapping data compared to traditional 2D representations.
2) Specifically, it notes that symbols used in 2D maps do not always translate well to 3D environments and questions whether a single symbol set can represent information effectively in both 2D and 3D.
3) The document explores issues with scales, perspectives, lighting and other factors that make consistent representation of symbols across dimensions difficult.
Cartographic language and portrayal
This document discusses cartographic language and portrayal in topographic maps. It analyzes stylistic diversity in 20 European 1:50,000 scale topographic maps, finding diversity in features symbolized, level of detail, and map legends. Political independence also influences cartographic language, as seen in maps of Slovenia and Latvia from the Yugoslav/Soviet eras versus their independent maps. The limits of a map's language influence how readers understand the landscape.
Which Way Is Up?
This document discusses issues of orientation and direction in schematic public transport maps. It notes that in schematic maps, direction may become distorted as scale varies and lines are simplified. This can cause confusion for users about which way is forward. The document also examines examples of different types of transport maps, including those for rail networks, metro systems, and bus routes. It explores challenges in designing maps that balance simplified schematics with local detail and geographic accuracy, especially at decision points. The goal is to create maps that are easy to understand at a glance while preserving user orientation.
