Making Deep Maps
Deepening Historical GIS
Primary historical source materials represent a very real challenge to GIS. In contrast to modern datasets where tabulated and structured data usually correspond neatly to fixed boundary units, primary historical source materials occur in predominantly unstructured text format. In these instances, people, events, and places must be unraveled from handwritten scripts and, if possible, subsequently linked and coupled to some form of mapping. In thi…
Deep Mapping and Sensual Immersive Geographies
Many have questioned the epistemological and ontological construction of geographic information systems (GIS) and the perceived inability of a positivist GIS to address the needs of humanists and human geography. The social theoretic critique of GIS questioned the ways in which a reductionist GIS represented nature and society. Geographic information science (GIScience) is not a panacea for geography but the primary focus on the spatial has contr…
Critical Realism and Emergence in a Scaled Geography of Religion
Scale is a contested concept in human geography fostering debates and contestation that have escalated to the point where some have argued for the term to be expunged from the geographical lexicon. Yet, despite the importance of scale in the geography of religion, the scalar debates in human geography have only rarely penetrated the conceptual base of the sub-discipline. This article addresses the scale debate through a case study of adherents in…
Interfacing archaeology and the world of citizen sensors
Emerging out of Web 2.0 there have been almost breath-taking technological advances in the geospatial web spurred on by developments in neogeography and the inter-connectivity provided by published open-source application programming interfaces. In addition, the greater availability of location-intelligent devices, social media technologies and the advent of volunteered geographic information promises to further revolutionize traditionally concei…
Geocollaborative Soil Boundary Mapping in an Experiential GIS Environment
Soil maps are an important and integral component of national geospatial data infrastructures. The creation of these maps involves a geovisualization exercise whereby soil scientists develop cognitive models that correlate observable landscape features to soil occurrence. This is traditionally an analog process, cognitively demanding, time consuming, and invariably non-collaborative. A new geovirtual soil mapping technique is proposed in this pap…

Industrial Restructuring and the United States Coal-Energy System, 1972–1990
In the past three decades the coal-energy system in the United States has undergone significant restructuring in location, technology, and organization. During the 1970s and 1980s the quadrupling of oil prices coupled with changing relations of production, legislative action for environmental protection, and deregulation in coal transportation initiated major reorganizations of the movement of coal from mines to electricity-generating plants. In …
