INFORMATION AND IDEAS: AN ANNOTATED BIBLIOGRAPHY The literature of cartography, aerial photography, and other remote sensing has been relatively prolific inrecent years. Many books, journal articles, pamphlets, and documents on these subjects have been published. Some of these refer- ences have potential value in high school geography work. The material listed in this bibliography has been chosen on the basis of potential value to high school geographyor other social studies courses, probable availabilityto the teacher, and recency of publication. The highly selective list inclLldes over 150 entries. Material applicable only to use in the lower grades has been omitted as has the technical literature of professional cartography and aerial photography. Books, pamphlets, and government documents of American origin are included; foreign publications are generally excluded because they are not widely available to teachers. Pertinent articles that have appeared the last 15 years in professional education journals and popular magazinesare included. Pro- fessional education journals represented in the bibliography include Social Education, Social Studies, The Instructor, Audiovisual Instruction, Catholic School Journal, and The Journal of Geography. The last, the journal of the National Council for Geographic Education, is a particularly fruitful source of articles on classroom map use and interpretation. Popular magazines represented include National Geographic Magazine, Holiday, Life, Harpers, and Scientific Americ:n. Articles by professional geographers, cartographers, photogrammetists, and others, reporting the results of techni- cal research

    Enduring Traditions Driving & Walking Tour THE CULTURE AND HERITAGE OF LAKE TAHOE, NEVADA Acknowledgements ountless individuals shared their knowledge, experience, and support in order to create this tour. We are particularly grateful to all of the traditional artists who are its lifeblood. An C entire acknowledgement page could have been written for each one, and there are many oth- ers important to this guide, whose names are not included because of space limitations. All gave us their time, and allowed us to enter their worlds and their lives, so that we could portray Lake Tahoe’s authentic artistic diversity and map its most significant sites. There would be no tour without them. A project such as this takes minds, money, devotion, and encouragement. Without the support of the State of Nevada, the National Endowment for the Arts Challenge America and Millennium Trails grants, and the Western Folklife Center, this project would only have existed in our imagina- tions. We want to express our thanks to individuals in the following organizations and agencies who provided services and guidance in the process of developing this tour guide, and checked for accuracy in the historical and environmental content. They are: California Department of Parks and Recreation-Sierra District Gatekeepers Museum-North Lake Tahoe Historical Society Gnomon Inc.

  • Measuring Success of National Geographic Society’S Geotourism Program
    MEASURING SUCCESS OF NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC SOCIETY’S GEOTOURISM PROGRAM by Kristen Leonard Dr. Charlotte Clark, Advisor May 2011 Masters project submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Master of Environmental Management degree in the Nicholas School of the Environment of Duke University 2011 ABSTRACT Geotourism is a method of implementing sustainable tourism developed by National Geographic Society (NGS) to promote stewardship of the world’s distinctive travel destinations. As of April 2011, fourteen regional destinations in six countries have undertaken this community-based marketing strategy, which aims to expand traveler access to authentic, sustainable travel options. The Geotourism Program has potential to contribute to environmental sustainability, benefit local economies, and preserve regional and cultural authenticity. However, NGS and destination partners need a system of evaluation to gauge impacts and measure success of all geotourism initiatives. In this study, I used participatory action research and case study methods to identify success indicators and develop three measures of success (MOS) tools: a Stewardship Council Assessment, Program Sustainability Assessment, and Web User Survey. These data collection instruments are based on evaluation interests of the Western U.S. Geotourism Collaboration. By implementing the same MOS methodology across projects, evidence of project successes may be aggregated to create a strong case for future project funding. Relevant background for each of the six western U.S.

  • National Geographic Makes Maps More Timely Than Ever With
    Months to Less Than Five Weeks! National Geographic Makes Maps More Timely Than Ever With GIS Following the terrorist attacks on the United States on September 11, 2001, millions of Americans searched for some way to help out. Emergency personnel from all over the country made their way to New York and Washington, D.C., to assist. Many flew flags and displayed patriotic bumper stickers in a show of national solidarity. At the offices of National Geographic, the map division felt it was in a unique position to help Americans understand the events in the news and the geography behind them. World attention was soon directed at Afghanistan and its ruling Taliban regime. Even before the United States began its air campaign in Afghanistan in October of 2001, National Geographic Maps had committed itself to produce a high-quality, detailed map of Afghanistan and the surrounding region for its December 2001 issue. Normally a map supplement is on the magazine’s produmost recipients of the December issue didn’t realize was that National Geographic had committed itself to a production time line of less than five weeks to include the Afghanistan map in the issue. And, according to the map division, it wouldn’t have been possible without its GIS staff. Response to September 11 “When the planes struck the World Trade Center, everyone was sort of in shock,” says Allen Carroll, chief cartographer at National Geographic Maps. “That weekend I realized that we needed to respond in some way. We were 95 percent finished on a map of Antarctica, but first thing Monday morning I went to see Bill Allen, the editor of the magazine.
