After the 1st General Assembly held in Paris, cartograph- ers of the World are going to meet again in the capital of France. It is quite common to organize events (seminars, joint meetings, workshops) that are connected to the main conference. In 2005, before the XXIIIrd Interna- tional Cartography Conference in A Coruña (Spain), five ICA Commissions met in Madrid to have a Joint ICA Seminar. This year, almost the same commissions and a working group organized a similar symposium at the University of Orléans. The participants are Commission on Cartography and Children, Commission on Education and Training, Commission on Maps and the Internet, Commission on Planetary Cartography and Working Group on Cartography on Early Warn- ing and Crisis Management. The submitted papers from all participating commis- sions were considered equal; organizers did not intend to emphasize specific top- ics. This is the reason why a short title was selected for the event: “Maps for the Fu- ture”. The papers of this symposium deal with a wide range of cartography. The topic of most papers was not directly related to certain commissions, but they were in- terdisciplinary. This makes these joint seminars, symposiums worthwhile: present- ing new ideas to the participants and helping us to follow the development of our science. Organizing a symposium is not just collecting abstracts and papers and pub- lishing them on CD-ROM and later in the Proceedings. The most difficult and time-consuming task is to organize the event itself (including all logistic elements: accommodation, meeting place etc.). A small group of people from the University of Orléans undertook this busy job to host more than 50 participants during the symposium. Many thanks for their efforts that let us realize this meeting here, in Orléans. The diversity of research topics being developed by the members of the ICA commissions and working groups all over the world is clearly demonstrated in the papers to be presented during these two days and in the proceedings published digitally. Organizers would like to thank the commission chairs for their support and ac- tive collaboration. We also thank the support of the ICA Executive Committee for their participation either as authors or as just visitors.
