Drawing from postmodernist philosophers, such as Foucault, during the late 1980s and early 1990s, advocates of critical cartography set out to reveal “the ‘hidden agendas of cartography’ as tools of socio-spatial power” (Einat 1). Critical cartography puts forward new mapping practices, known as counter-mapping. Counter-mapping refers to any map- making processes that challenge the formal maps of the state. This includes Indigenous cartography or ethnocartography, art mapping and cognitive mapping. Indigenous cartography, sometimes referred to as ethnocartography refers to non-western mapping practices created from the perspective of Indigenous peoples and running challenging colonial assertions over land claims. Art mapping is “nothing less than the remaking of the world” (Krygier and Wood 10). The remapping of the social, cultural or linguistic space challenges the entire notion of the professional map and asserts a new form of what is real. Visual artists often create new maps from traditional maps or do away with their boundaries all together. Cognitive Mapping or mental mapping “refers to the ways in which people comprehend, learn, remember, record and articulate their experiences in the physical environment” (Einat 1). Critical cartography moves the map beyond the realm of an object and into a space for complex critical thinking in regards to understanding our world. As such, the develop- ment of critical maps are often used as tools for activists and those committed to social justice pursuing a new narrative counter to colonial descriptions of space, time and memory. Audience This research plan was designed to serve researchers in the field of cartography, human geography, Indigenous studies, visual art and art history, border studies, political science, American studies and other related social sciences. This plan may also serve librarians working with map collections and georeferencing tools. The core of the sources would best serve faculty and students of the University of Hawaii at Mānoa (UHM), but it is broad enough in scope for this interested in pursuing this field outside of the university. 2 Joy Enomoto LIS 601: Bibliographic Research Plan Reference Sources For background information on the field of Critical Cartography and its related fields, there were several reference sources that I consulted through Hamilton Library: Harley, J. B., and Woodward, David. The History of Cartography. Chicago: U of Chicago, 1987. Print. (Call Number: GA201 .H53 1987 ). This two volume set, whose initial volume was published in 1987 was followed by three books compiling the second volume that were released in piece meal over the next 11 years. This collection sets out to define a new set of relationships between maps and the physical world and repositioning at the heart of cultural life and society. Kitchin, Rob, and Freundschuh, Scott. Cognitive Mapping : Past, Present, and Future. London ; New York: Routledge, 2000. Print. (Call Number: BF314 .K58 2000). This book provides a good overview of the origin of the subject area of cognitive mapping, contemporary discussions and the directions this type of spatial interrogation is headed.

Westport, Conn.: Greenwood Pub., 2004. Print. (Call Number: GF4 .P58 2004 Library Use Only) This encyclopedia discusses all the ways in which humans interact and provides overviews for critical cartography, indigenous mapping and cognitive mapping. Citation Style & Coding Key All citations in this bibliographic research plan follow the guidelines of the MLA Handbook for Writers of Research Papers (7th edition). The coding key for this project primarily utilized key word search terms (KW) in lower case and in quotes, keywords with Boolean operators (AND OR NOT) will be in mixed case with the Boolean operators in caps. Controlled vocabulary (CV) search terms in all caps. 3 Joy Enomoto LIS 601: Bibliographic Research Plan Search Strategy I applied the coding key as previously stated and used the Library of Congress Classification Outline to determine subject headings, their subclasses and call numbers. Since this research plan caters primarily to the UHM and academic libraries, I did not use Dewey Decimal classifications in my search. I also did not include subject headings that included literary mapping which would have made the scope too broad and taken away from the focus of spatial criticism and applied mapping practice. Subject Headings Library of Congress (LC) To locate Library of Congress subject headings and call numbers I rely on the Library of Congress Classification Outline. I began with the subject of Geography and narrowed the terms from this point. Subject headings: GEOGRAPHY MAPS MATHEMATICAL GEOGRAPHY COUNTER MAPPING CARTOGRAPHY INDIGENOUS MAPPING CARTOGRAPHY - HISTORY COGNITIVE MAPS (PSYCHOLOGY) ETHNOCARTOGRAPHY MENTAL MAPPING POLITICAL GEOGRAPHY ART MAPS LC Call Numbers These call numbers provide the ranges for searches in Critical Cartography and it sub- headings.

  • Issue Mapping, Ageing, and Digital Methods
    1. Introduction: Issue mapping, ageing, and digital methods 1.1 Issue mapping Stakeholders, students, issue professionals, workshop participants, practitioners, advocates, action researchers, activists, artists, and social entrepreneurs are often asked to make sense of the social issues that concern and affect the organizations and projects they are involved with. In doing so, they have to cope with information sources both aggregated and disaggregated, where opposing claims clash and where structured narratives are unavailable, or are only now being written. At the same time, the issues must be analysed, for they are urgent and palpable. The outcomes of the projects also need to be communicated to the various publics and audiences of their work. These issue analysts employ a wide range of strategies and techniques to aid in making sense of the issues, and communicating them, and as such they undertake, in one form or another, what we call ‘issue mapping’. In a small workshop setting, the analysts may draw dots and lines on a whiteboard, and annotate them with sticky notes and multicoloured markers, in order to represent actors, connections, arguments and positions. At the sign-in table, at a barcamp, hundreds of activists write down on a large sheet of paper the URLs of their organizations or projects, forming a long list that is typed into the computer for the mapping to proceed. Analysts will harvest the links between the websites, and put up a large map for the participants to pore over and annotate. The attendees will ask questions about the method behind the mapping, and also how their nodes can become larger and less peripheral.

It is ambitious in its plan to compute constellations from network graphs. What is a constellation mathematically? You will need graph theory, a sophisticated data transformation. How many stars and links for a typical constellation? Why? Are there families of constellations? How do you represent the constellations within the network? What are the view transformations? How do you provide overview, zooming, filtering, details on demand? You need to focus. Who is your user? What are the tasks? Where do you get your raw data? You need refine your ideas. Using the 4K screen with the kinect may work. 2016-02-02 IVIS16 L5 3 Skylikes feedback to ”Hello World” Demo Diana, Andrés, Willie, Tomáš, Johanna: Your choice of focusing on Goodreads is wise. Your Hello World demo worked very well and it gave your classmates a concrete opportunity to provide actionable feedback. Good work. Your challenge remains the graph theory to compute reasonable constellations in the number of stars and edges and their location. For example, should you strive for planar graphs? How many nodes and edges? Where do you place the cut off? Also, you have to think about your query system and the permanence of the constellations across users, sessions, and networks of friends.

  • 1. Cartography: the Development and Critique of Maps and Mapmaking
    1. Cartography: the development and critique of maps and mapmaking Maps ‘are once again in the thick of it’ for critical social theorists, artists, literary critics and cultural geographers, but also in a very different way for planners, GIS researchers and scientists. Art and science offer different cartographic explanations. There are profound differences between those who research mapping as a practical form of applied knowledge, and those who seek to critique the map and the mapping process. (Perkins 2003: 341-342) Cartography is the study of maps and map-making. Classically, it focused on the art of the map-maker; today it includes the history of maps and their use in society. A map, as defined by the International Cartographic Association (2009), is ‘a symbolised image of geographical reality, representing selected features or characteristics, resulting from the creative effort of its author's execution of choices, and is designed for use when spatial relationships are of primary relevance’. While this definition eloquently indicates the varying constructions of maps, leading to the different ways maps are conceptualised and produced within society, its basic premise -- that a map is first and foremost ‘a symbolised image of a geographical reality’ -- has been challenged with the rise of a critical cartography/geography. Taking this definition as a starting premise, this chapter will seek to illustrate the ‘creativity’ and ‘selectivity’ of maps through a brief history of cartography, before embarking in later sections on a more critical analysis of the debates that surround the subject. The primary goal here is to understand the lessons that can be drawn from the historical development of cartography in a bid to assist contemporary criminologists in the development of more appropriate questions about maps and ultimately the process of crime mapping itself.

  • Exploring GIS and Maps As a Teaching Tool for Social Change
    273 Maps, Mapmaking, and Critical Pedagogy: Exploring GIS and Maps as a Teaching Tool for Social Change Denise Pacheco University of California, Los Angeles Graduate School of Education and Information Studies Veronica Nelly Velez University of California, Los Angeles Graduate School of Education and Information Studies I was nervous standing in front of my family, over one hundred community members, and the Pasadena School Board.1 I checked and double-checked my computer, power point slides, and notes one last time. The GIS maps I had spent months creating were ready to go—but was I? I gazed out into the audience at each one of the parents, students, and community members. Their lives and struggles were embedded in these maps that visually portrayed how race has shaped the demographics and opportunities available in Pasadena schools over the last fifty years. Yet, I knew as I looked out at the hopeful faces of my community that this information could not stand alone. Today the burden was on me to give a voice to the maps and to narrate a story of how parents and students experienced racism in Pasadena schools. Not only was I using statistical data to argue that the spaces students occupy in public and private schools within our “City of Roses” are heavily racialized, I was also telling an important counter-story of possibility. It was conveying the complexity of so many people’s experiences that made me the most nervous. Who was I to speak for so many? 274 SEATTLE JOURNAL FOR SOCIAL JUSTICE Slowly I began, explaining map after map.

Rates of recidivism reflect the degree to which released inmates have been rehabilitated and the role correctional programs play in reintegrating prisoners into society. The rate of recidivism in the U.S. is estimated to be about two-thirds, which means that two-thirds of released inmates will be re-incarcerated within three years. High rates of recidivism result in tremendous costs both in terms of public safety and in tax dollars spent to arrest, prosecute, and incarcerate re-offenders.

However, what has not changed is our longstanding goal to better understand our world through spatial analysis. Traveling the world I have met people from many diverse cultures who work in a wide range of industries. However, as I listen to their mission and challenges, there is a common pattern: we all speak the same language—it is the language of spatial analysis. This language consists of a core set of questions that we ask, a taxonomy that organizes and expands our understanding, and the fundamental steps to spatial analysis that embody how we solve spatial problems. I encourage each of you to learn and communicate to the world the power of spatial analysis. Learn the definition, learn the vocabulary and the process, and most important, be able to speak this language to the world.

  • Classroom Activity Pictorial Language: Mesoamerican Reading
    Classroom Activity Pictorial Language: Mesoamerican Reading and Writing ______________________________________________________________________________________________________ Enduring Understanding The basic unit of pictorial language is the pictogram, a graphic symbol that represents an idea or concept. Pictorial language, although an ancient tradition, is still employed in colloquialisms today. Grades K–12 Time One class period Visual Art Concepts Symbol, meaning, representation, communication, Materials Paper and pencils. Optional: colored pencils Talking about Art Pictorial language, or an ideographic writing system is a method of communication based on the ideogram/pictogram. An ideogram is a symbol that represents an idea or concept, while a pictogram conveys meaning through realistic resemblance. These symbols, unique to every ancient civilization, formed a hieroglyphic dictionary for Mesoamerican scribes. Much of the history of Mesoamerica can be traced through their pictorial language, independently developed around 950 and widely adopted throughout southern Mexico by 1300. It was used to record and preserve the history, genealogy, and mythology of Mixtec, Nahua, and Zapotec cultures and appears most prominently in painted books called codices. (For more information about codices and for tips on how to create one, see the accompanying lesson plan Create Your Lord Eight Deer Own Codex.) View and discuss the Codex Nuttal, Mexico, Western Oaxaca, 15th–16th century. What is going on here? Who are the characters? What is the setting? What action is taking place? How did the scribe or artist use line, shape, space, color, and composition to tell the story? This codex tells the story of Lord Eight Deer, an epic Mixtec conqueror and cult hero who lived between 1063 and 1115.

Our theories on mapping emphasize the merging of critical cartography (Crampton, 2010) and critical spatial theories (Lefebvre, 1991; Massey, 1994; Soja, 1989; 2010). Crampton (2010) underscores four principles that identifies shared practices. He write both challenges unexamined assumptions of representations of place, offers spatial and historical understandings of place, examines power, and finally provides an emancipatory process (p.17).
