'The map that would save Europe': Clive Morrison-Bell, the Tariff Walls Map, and the politics of cartographic display
Published 2018“…This essay uses the personal archives of Clive Morrison-Bell (1871-1956), a campaigning Conservative politician who made extensive use of maps and cartographic models, to consider the entangled histories of cartography, economics and geopolitics in early twentieth-century Britain. …”

GNSS maps in environmental monitoring
Published 2018“…Traditionally, maps have been produced by plotting features on paper at a given scale, calling upon a variety of cartographic skills. The advent of computers, satellite data, and geographical information system (GIS), however, has revolutionized the art of map production, with the modern day cartographer required to master computer skills for the purpose of not only the production, but also the management of digital maps.…”

Geography and the Paris Academy of Sciences: politics and patronage in early 18th-century France
Published 2014“…The death in 1726 of Guillaume Delisle, a prominent Academy astronomer-cartographer and a popular geography tutor to the young Louis XV, led to a spirited campaign to elect Philippe Buache, Delisle’s prot�eg�e, to a new Academy position as a geographer rather than an astronomer. …”

A re-examination of the life and work of A.F.G. Kerr and of his colleagues and friends
Published 2015“…The large, but dispersed, archive of Kerr’s photographs, maps, living collections and correspondence indicate that he was a skilled photographer (taking at least 3,000 images), cartographer (producing many hand-drawn maps) and exceptionally acute, accurate and detailed observer (fi lling numerous notebooks and leaving other records). …”

Analysis on 2D mapping for mobile robot on the sharp edges area
Published 2024“…Due to this issue, this study aims to analyze the impact of LiDAR self-motion distortions on three SLAM algorithms: GMapping, Hector SLAM, and Google Cartographer. These algorithms are implemented on a TurtleBot3 Burger robot to perform 2D mapping under different speed conditions (0.07m/s, 0.14m/s, and 0.22m/s) in the Control System Lab at U niversiti Malaysia Pahang AI- Sultan Abdullah (UMPSA). …”

Techniques of generalisation in computer-assisted cartography in the realm of artificial intelligence
Published 1994“…Generalisation has been a major component of the cartographic method. The principles and practices of generalisation of cartographic elements in an automated system should not be assumed to be the same as those in manual cartography. …”

3D dynamic simulation and visualization for GIS based infiltration excess overland flow modelling
Published 2008“…Implementation of soft geo-objects representing flow elements such as streams, mudflows and runoff provides better dynamic visualization in terms of velocity and direction.Inclusion of volume would offer substantial effort towards determining volume of stormwater runoff hits the flood-plain areas, estimating channel flow capacity, routing and diversions to reduce flood disasters realistically. However, cartographers have long complained about the poor quality of the output from GIS, which generally today is not due to limitation of the GIS itself, but to lack of understanding of cartographic principles among hydrologists and environmentalists.With rapid growth of urbanization, industrialization and climate change, previous historical runoff and infiltration rate would provide improper guide for the future enhanced visualization of the current 2D land use surface to improve future hydrologic impact assessment. …”

‘Ça tient qu'à toi’: cartographies of post-fordist labour in Laurent Cantet's L'Emploi du temps
Published 2011“…Drawing on Gilles Deleuze's work on Michel Foucault, control societies and cinema, Laurent Cantet's L'Emploi du temps is analysed as a cartographic rendering of post-Fordist labour. The film creates a pervasive ambiance of liminality and dreamlike disconnection—‘flottement’—around the central character of Vincent in order to convey the affective landscape of post-Fordist immaterial labour (in this case business consultancy). …”
