Jerusalem Online Critical Cartography for the Digital Age
Free Download Valentina Carraro, "Jerusalem Online: Critical Cartography for the Digital Age"
English | 2021 | ISBN: 9811633169, 9811633134 | PDF | pages: 137 | 2.8 mb
The book addresses the rapid shifts which have taken place within cartography, and argues that no amount of technological sophistication will lead to neutral representations, and that as such critical cartography provides a solid foundation for questioning the power of maps. It considers the fragmentation, dynamism and opacity that characterise online maps, and argues for the need of new ways of thinking and researching maps. The book offers an approach grounded in 'ontological' social theory and feminist technoscience, and illustrates it through the analysis of three Jerusalem-related mapping controversies. Using online media, historical maps and ethnographic work, each case study explores a different map provider and a recent mapping development: Google Maps and the distributed authorship of web-maps; Waze and algorithmic navigation; OpenStreetMap and crowdsourcing. The book is a key read to faculty and advanced students in Urban Studies and Critical Cartography. It will particularly appeal to those working in the digital geographies

New Directions in Radical Cartography Why the Map is Never the Territory
Free Download Phil Cohen, "New Directions in Radical Cartography: Why the Map is Never the Territory"
English | ISBN: 153814719X | 2021 | 392 pages | EPUB | 24 MB
New Directions in Radical Cartography looks at the contemporary debates about the role of maps in society. It explores the emergence of counter-mapping as a distinctive field of practice, and the impact that digital mapping technologies have had on cartographic practice and theory. It includes original research, accounts of mapping projects and detailed readings of maps. The contributors explore how digital mapping technologies have sponsored a new wave of practices that seek to challenge the power that maps are commonly assumed to have. They document the continued vitality of analogue maps in the hands of artists and activists who are pushing the boundaries of what is mappable in different ways. New Directions in Radical Cartography draws on a rich body of mapping work that exists as part of community action, urban ethnography, environmental activism, humanitarianism, and public engagement.

English | 2015 | pages: 1941 | ISBN: 0226534715, 0226534693 | PDF | 98,9 mb
The twentieth century is a pivotal period in map history. Imperialism, industrialization, globalization, and other forces drove mapping into enhanced and unprecedented roles. The transition from paper to digital formats led to previously unimaginable dynamic and interactive maps. Geographic information systems radically altered cartographic institutions and reduced the skill required to make maps. Satellite positioning and mobile communications revolutionized wayfinding, while technologies for imaging the Earth from above enhanced the efficiency of mapping and surveillance. In a century marked by accelerating growth, mapping evolved as an important worldwide tool for coping with complexity, organizing knowledge, and influencing public opinion in all parts of the globe.
