GIS Cartography: A Guide to Effective Map Design
Available Now
This is the book to have on map design fundamentals. Not only
does it give you all the basic design know-how from fonts to colors to layouts,
it also draws on many non-GIS disciplines such as cognitive design and landscape
architecture to bring the best, newest, design concepts into the GIS realm.
You'll be encouraged to develop your creative skills in a chapter devoted to that subject, you'll get all the basic stuff down-pat, and you'll receive a motivating kick-in-the-pants to start really thinking about your maps and using your own novel approaches to solve all the problems that your unique data are presenting to you.
Written in a clear, accessible manner that is never boring and even sometimes entertaining, the book aims to be that one resource you will always want to have at your finger-tips while designing your maps.
