    International Cartographic Association (ICA) http://www.icaci.org Commission on Mountain Cartography http://www.mountaincartography.org Report 2007–2011 of the ICA Commission on Mountain Cartography to the ICA General Assembly 0. Introduction, history During the German‐speaking Cartographic Congress in Interlaken/Switzerland in 1996, the Commission on High Mountain Cartography of the German Society of Cartography with representatives of the three German‐speaking alpine countries was founded. In February 1998, the Commission organized a first workshop in the Silvretta area in Austria with 35 participants from 7 countries which demonstrated the breadth and necessity of this research area. Based on these precursor activities, the General Assembly of ICA at the ICC 1999 in Ottawa approved the ICA Commission on Mountain Cartography. Today, the activities of the two commissions are overlapping to a large extent. 1. Chair / Co-chair Assistant Prof. Dr. Karel Kriz (Chair), University of Vienna, Austria Prof. Dr. Lorenz Hurni (Co‐chair), Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH) Zurich, Switzerland 2.

Terms of Reference 2007–2011 1. Further define the topics of Mountain Cartography and promote the methods and knowledge of mountain cartography among scientists and professionals in cartography and related fields. 2. Provide an updated, attractive web‐site with information about Commission activities, links to other events and theme‐specific knowledge.

  • Brief Factsheet
    Brief Factsheet Lenk-Simmental Tourismus AG Lenk-Simmental: authentic Alpkultur®, real/veritable family fun/amusement The noun is feminine in German: die «Lenk». Why «Lenk»? «Lenk» derives from the transformation of the term «An der langen Egg», «lange Ecke» [long corner], «The Langeck» [The Long Corner] contracted to «Die Läng’k», «la Lenk» in French. So much for the results of modern linguistic research. Hence «At Lenk»! Lenk im Simmental is located in the Bernese Highlands, around 80 kilometres from Berne and is the municipality with the highest elevation in Simmental. Lying at the foot of the Wildstrubel massif, at 1’068 metres a.s.l., Lenk is shielded from the wind and invites visitors to pause in its fog-free and irritant-free climate. Its mineral springs rich in sulphur and iron are among the most powerful in the Alpine region. The opening of a spa assembly room over 350 years ago laid the foundation of the successful development of Lenk as a tourist destination. The holiday destination Lenk-Simmental is made up of six municipalities: Lenk, St. Stephan, Boltigen-Jaunpass, Oberwil, Weissenburg-Därstetten and Erlenbach. In 1996 the resort of Lenk was awarded the quality seal ‘Family Destination’ by the Swiss Tourism Federation (STF).
