Cartography and Geomedia

<p>The Special Issue Cartography and Geomedia presents a view of cartography as a combination of technology science and art with a focus on the development of geomedia in a geomatic and design-based context. Individual considerations are presented according to the following topics: efficiency of mapping techniques; historical cartographic works in a geomedial context; cartographic pragmatics for cultural heritage teaching and tourism; and pragmatism in gaming cartography. The main conclusion is that the two approaches to learning revealing and understanding geographic phenomena-starting from a specific geographical phenomenon and starting from maps and geomedia to understand geographical space-have their pragmatic strengths.</p>
