Effectiveness of a Semi-Immersive Virtual Environment in Understanding Human–Environment Interactions
Virtual environments and related technology generate interest and excitement. Their power is strengthened with empirical evidence of their utility for scientific inquiry and decision-making. This paper reports on a study to evaluate the effectiveness of virtual environment (VE) presentations about issues typical of those facing decision makers in a rapidly growing urban area. The presentations consisted of the explanation and visualization of two…
Iconic Maps in American Political Discourse
Maps are often used in the promotion of specific forms of political and social doctrine. Some such maps, which I call “maps in the wild,” do not serve the traditional purposes of maps but, rather, exist as symbols themselves, much like corporate logos, communicating meaning and evoking emotional responses. Typical maps in the wild include global representations and outline maps of political units. The use of map images as iconic symbols in politi…
Cultural Factors in Digital Cartographic Design
Cartography as a discipline benefits from a careful consideration of the users and the use of map products. Whether a map is used to communicate information, to assist in problem solving, or to analyze complex information, appreciation of the user's experience, knowledge, and background is vital for effective design. Since the turn of the millennium, this has become more important as users of maps (particularly digital maps) have changed dramatic…
Comparing Strategies for Presenting Concepts in Introductory Undergraduate Geography
Two experiments investigating the benefit of computer-based applications in geography education are presented. The computer-based methods employ concepts of visualization, including animation and interactivity, to facilitate active learning. These computer-based methods are compared with physical (i.e. tangible) models, which themselves can be considered active learning tools. Thus, this report compares a pair of learning strategies using interac…
