| dc.description.abstract | This presentation, designed for an art class, and another similar one written for a French language class, is an attempt to convey the way a cartographer views and communicates the landscape. For those who feel they already know what a map is, this lecture may be a revelation, as it deconstructs a map to its elements and explains the use of perspective, colour, symbols, scale, generalization, form, function, depictions of relief, and printing methods. Links to examples in our own online map collection are provided below each corresponding image in the PowerPoint so that you can view the entire map in detail. | en_US |
