Digital Mapping
Computer-based tools and techniques for the storage, processing, querying and visualisation of geographic data, most notably in the form of maps, charts and atlases
This topic covers the software systems and services– both desktop, mobile and cloud-based - that are used across the public, private and consumer sectors to store, process and display geographic data, most notably in the form of maps, charts and atlases. It also covers the tools provided by such software and cloud-based services to manipulate, analyse and query that data, as well as to integrate a variety of non-spatial datasets.
