Focus and Content

 

Ten years of experience in implementing digital technologies in cartographic heritage, developed in the frame of the nine previous Commission's Workshops and Tutorial, offer the grounds for assembling a new approach dealing with innovative concepts and contexts

These concepts and contexts are relevant to the Cartoheritage Ecosystems: of providers of cartodiversity assets (map collections, maplibraries, map archives); of growers (in digital humanities, maps/globes/atlases collections, curatorship and map archiving, in expertise coupling history of cartography with technology based analyses, in development and production of metadata related to cartodiversity assets, in linking textual data with maps and cartographic material, in mainstream cartography and geospatial/geomatics engineering, in appropriate scanning/digitising and georeferencing know-how and in other affined issues) and of users (in humanities, sciences, education, culture, geopolitics, social, artistic, media, digital industry-entrepreneurship and everyday life issues associated to the use and implementation of the huge available deposit of cartographic heritage assets all over the world)
