Extractions: COMPUTATIONAL CARTOGRAPHY is an exciting, informative, and personal hands-on exploration of maps in the digital age. It is an inquiry into how we perceive and represent spatial reality and how we come to know and understand the world around us through the practices of computational cartography. We will examine how computers are changing the age-old media of map-making from the technologies of ink on paper to those of bits, bytes and phosphors on glass screen monitors. We will deconstruct the cultural contexts of mappings from their creation, through their distribution and usage, and ultimately to their obsolescence. We will foreground those coevolutionary mechanisms that link

Extractions: Geographers study the interaction between human societies and their environments, characterize the regions and localities that result, and analyze the spatial distributions and processes of particular natural and human phenomena. Being equally a natural science and a social science, geography forms a bridge between the physical and human environments. Thus, geographers have always been comfortable applying multidisciplinary approaches to solve real-world problems. Geography Department News
