This book brings together ten empirically rich and theoretically informed contributions that aim to clarify both geo-historical specificities and common transnational and global features of the cultures and practices of boundary making that shaped modern statehood. Written by scholars from Spain, France, Italy, Argentina, Brazil and Mexico, the essays included in this volume provide a comparative international perspective on the processes of border formation, as well as an integrative approach that seeks to strengthen the links between renewed geo-historical studies and more contemporary-oriented border studies. The book is addressed to a wide range of researchers, including geographers, historians, political scientists and specialists in geopolitics and the history of international relations.

This volume provides a framework for evaluating geospatial software for participatory mapping. The evaluation is based on ten key indicators: ethics, cost, technical level, inclusiveness, data accuracy, data privacy, analytical capacity, visualization capacity, openness, and accessibility (i.e., mobile friendly or offline capabilities). Each application is evaluated by a user and cross analyzed with specific case studies of the software¿s real-world application. This framework does not discriminate against assessing volunteered geographic information (VGI) applications, as a form of participatory mapping, in circumstances that its application is spearheaded by underrepresented groups with the intent to empower and spark political or behavioral change within formal and informal institutions. Each chapter follows a strict template to ensure that the information within the volume can be updated periodically to match the ever-changing technological environment. The book covers ten different mapping applications with the goal of creating a comparative evaluation framework that can be easily interpreted by convening institutions and novice users. This will also help identify gaps in software for participatory mapping which will help to inform application development in the future and updates to current geospatial software.

From iconic landmarks to hidden shortcuts, GET LOST! takes your eyes on a journey and allows readers to explore the lands through the eyes of Illustrators. Before GPS systems and Google Maps were invented, folded paper maps and guidebooks were always our trusty companions while on the road. While paper maps are becoming increasingly obsolete, there¿s more to cartography than just bearings and scales. Illustrated maps hone the ability to bring a place to life through vivid drawings, leaving a unique impression filled with the illustrator¿s own experiences. GET LOST! boasts four different jacket designs, featuring city maps of London, Paris, Los Angeles or Singapore. Orders will be fulfilled at random from evenly mixed cartons.

"This is the first English-language monograph on the early history of cartography in China. Its chief players are three maps found in tombs that date from the fourth to the second century BCE and together constitute the entire known corpus of ancient Chinese maps (ditu). A millennium separates them from the next available map from 1136 CE. Most scholars study them through the lens of modern, empirical definitions of maps and their use. This book offers an alternative view by drawing on methods not just from cartography but from art history, archaeology, and religion. It argues that, as tomb objects, the maps were designed to be simultaneously functional for the living and the dead-that each map was drawn to serve navigational purposes of guiding the living from one town to another as well as to diagram ritual order, thereby taming the unknown territory of the dead. In contrast with traditional scholarship, The Art of Terrestrial Diagrams in Early China proposes that ditu can "speak" through their forms. Departing from dominant theories of representation that forge a narrow path from form to meaning, the book braids together two main strands of argumentation to explore the multifaceted and multifunctional diagrammatic tradition of rendering space in early China"--

The basis of this proposal is the study of quality of life from an interdisciplinary perspective. This volume presents a set of contributions from different sciences that analyse the quality of life in Argentina. The contributions come from the social disciplines (Geography, Economics, Demography, History) and from the field of health (Nutrition, Medicine, Psychology) as well as the applied sciences (Statistics, Applied Mathematics). The purpose is to present various dimensions related to the well-being of the population, particularly in relation to poverty, human development, health, nutrition and morbidity. Although there are works from different sciences associated with the object of study, they all have a geographic component based on cartography. Consequently, the importance of geography is highlighted, as the territorial base allows for the study quality of life from a unique perspective where the map emerges as a fundamental descriptive tool. Such an approach is useful to diagnose the quality of life and its uneven spatial distribution, either through index or different associated variables. Thus, the maps are fundamental to study the territorial configuration of the quality of life at the different scales of analysis, showing spatial inequalities and the areas where it is necessary to take measures to improve the population's living conditions.

Das schöne Tirol ist der Startpunkt des Lech-Radweges, der bis zu seinem Übertritt nach Deutschland ganz auf Tuchfühlung mit dem Lech geht. Die Fahrt führt durch eine der letzten wilden Flusslandschaften in Europa, durch die sich der gletscherblaue Fluss mit seinen malerischen weißen Kiesbänken und flankiert von hohen Bergen, seinen Weg bahnt. Das Naturschauspiel Lechfall markiert den Übergang nach Bayern, das die Reisenden mit seiner Bilderbuchlandschaft aus hügeliger Voralpengegend mit grünen Weiden, den prachtvollen Königsschlössern und blitzblauen Seen empfängt. Das lebensfrohe Füssen läutet dann den Reigen sehenswerter, historischer Städte ein, der sich nordwärts mit dem mittelalterlichen Landsberg am Lech und der Fuggerstadt Augsburg fortsetzt. Auf der Höhe des schmucken Städtchens Donauwörth mündet der Lech schlussendlich in die Donau und der Lech-Radweg in den Donauradweg.

Læsøs Stednavne indgår som nr. 27 i serien Danmarks Stednavne. Bindet udgør en afsluttet helhed, hvor hovedvægten er lagt på ældre bebyggelsesnavne samt naturnavne langs øens kyster.I bindet behandles mere end 350 stednavne på og ved Læsø. For hvert navn er oplistet de ældste staveformer og et udvalg af yngre former, fulgt af en identifikation af de enkelte navneled og en tolkning af deres betydning.Udvælgelsen af navne som behandles, er foretaget efter principperne i de foregående bind af Danmarks Stednavne som primært har til formål at beskrive landets bebyggelsesnavne fra det gamle bondeland, dvs. fra tiden før udskiftningen. På Læsø fandt udskiftningen sted omkring 1850.Bebyggelsesnavnene omfatter navnet på det enkelte sogn og den bebyggelse som har navn efter sognet, samt navne på gårde, huse, møller og kroer som kendes fra skriftlige kilder før år 1850.Stednavnebrugen på Læsø er kompleks og navnene er – i forhold til i resten af Danmark – sent overleveret. Derfor er der benyttet yderligere kriterier for udvælgelsen af de bebyggelsesnavne som består af en præpositionsforbindelse eller et personnavn. Her er udvælgelsen for præpositions-navnenes vedkommende foretaget ud fra et forsigtighedsprincip da denne type navne oftest indgår i en personbetegnende sammenhæng hvor det ikke fremgår eksplicit at der er tale om et bebyggelsesnavn. Af disse navne er kun medtaget dem der er entydigt overleveret som bebyggelsesnavne. Når bebyggelsesnavne er identiske med personnavne, er disse kun medtaget hvis det fremgår eksplicit af overleveringen at der er tale om et bebyggelsesnavn, og at ingen ejer eller andre personer i den enkelte kilde benævnes med det pågældende navn.Afvigende kriterier foreligger ved de navne som er behandlet i kapitlet Andre navne på Læsø som hovedsageligt udgøres af naturnavne. Her findes alle naturnavne som er belagt før 1513, samt naturnavne som findes på Videnskabernes Selskabs konceptkort fra 1786, Stednavneudvalgets retskrivningslister fra 1966 og 2020 samt Trap Danmark Topografisk Atlas fra 2017.Hvor der foreligger en moderne form af navnene, er denne i almindelighed opslagsform.
