Motion in Maps, Maps in Motion argues that the mapping of stories, movement, and change should not be understood as an innovation of contemporary cartography, but rather as an important aspect of human cartography with a longer history than might be assumed.
La guía para el procesamiento de series de tiempo de precipitación y temperatura: estimación de datos faltantes, detección de cambios y homogenización, describe las etapas para realizar el proceso de homogenización de series de tiempo mensuales, contribuyendo a evaluar la calidad de los datos y favoreciendo el desarrollo de estudios climatológicos.
This book explores how the origins of Brazil's modern borders can be traced to the cartography of the Americas produced by the eighteenth-century French cartographer J.
This book fills a gap in the market by taking an introductory look at cartographic representations as multimedia constructs, from theory to critique to neopragmatist perspectives and in practice.

The Compleat Plattmaker is a rich collection of essays delving into the art and science of cartography in England during the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries.
The use of computers in cartography has made it easier for map makers to transform data from one map projection to another and experiment with alternative representations of geographical data.
Offers New Insight on Uncertainty ModellingFocused on major research relative to spatial information, Uncertainty Modelling and Quality Control for Spatial Data introduces methods for managing uncertainties-such as data of questionable quality-in geographic information science (GIS) applications.
Map projection concerns the science of mathematical cartography, the techniques by which the Earth's dimensions, shape and features are translated in map form, be that two-dimensional paper or two- or three- dimensional electronic representations.
Following in the tradition of its popular predecessor, the Manual of Geospatial Science and Technology, Second Edition continues to be the authoritative volume that covers all aspects of the field, both basic and applied, and includes a focus on initiating, planning, and managing GIS projects.
