Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report investigates the subject of standardization of map symbology for large scale engineering maps and plans. It discusses such questions as, is there a need for standardization and what criteria should be used to design the symbols. For the purposes of this thesis, 'large scale maps' or 'engineering scale maps and plans' refer to maps produced between the scales of 20 feet to the inch (1:240) and 400 feet to the inch (1:4800).

Book excerpt: Though many organizations have been studying the need for or emphasizing the need for a standard set of map symbols for large scale maps (1:240 to 1:4800), little to date has been done to develop a standardized legend. The main problems associated with producing a standard legend are: to provide a unique symbol for each feature, to be able to computer-program the symbols, to implement the standard once it is adopted, and the upkeep of the standard. These problems and their solutions are addressed in the presentation. The actual set of symbols and their development are presented in Chapter V of the forthcoming manual: 'Manual on Map Uses, Scales, and Accuracies for Engineering and Associated Purposes'. This manual is being prepared by the Committee on Cartographic Surveying, of the Surveying and Mapping Division, ASCE.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “In his most ambitious work to date, [Edney] questions the very concept of ‘cartography’ to argue that this flawed ideal has hobbled the study of maps.” —Susan Schulten, author of A History of America in 100 Maps Over the past four decades, the volumes published in the landmark History of Cartography series have both chronicled and encouraged scholarship about maps and mapping practices across time and space. As the current director of the project that has produced these volumes, Matthew H. Edney has a unique vantage point for understanding what “cartography” has come to mean and include. In this book Edney disavows the term cartography, rejecting the notion that maps represent an undifferentiated category of objects for study. Rather than treating maps as a single, unified group, he argues, scholars need to take a processual approach that examines specific types of maps—sea charts versus thematic maps, for example—in the context of the unique circumstances of their production, circulation, and consumption. To illuminate this bold argument, Edney chronicles precisely how the ideal of cartography that has developed in the West since 1800 has gone astray. By exposing the flaws in this ideal, his book challenges everyone who studies maps and mapping practices to reexamine their approach to the topic. The study of cartography will never be the same. “[An] intellectually bracing and marvellously provocative account of how the mythical ideal of cartography developed over time and, in the process, distorted our understanding of maps.” —Times Higher Education “Cartography: The Ideal and Its History offers both a sharp critique of current practice and a call to reorient the field of map studies. A landmark contribution.” —Kären Wigen, coeditor of Time in Maps
