NWGIS UC 2024

No other cartography textbook has withstood the test of time like Map Use: Reading Analysis, Interpretation. Since its debut in 1978―nearly a half century ago―it has remained a stalwart companion for instructors, students, self-learners, and professionals in GIS and other industries. With Map Use, 9th Edition, authors empower current map readers and novice mapmakers in various ways. The new edition will be published in both print and e-book format and will include some of the best maps recently made. It provides the map reader with a unique perspective into what has changed over the years―and what concepts and approaches to map use remain the same. From the book’s first to its ninth edition, the underlying philosophy of Map Use remains the same―a good map user must understand, at a basic level, what goes into the making of a map.
