Cartography is the art and science of visually depicting a geographical area, typically on a flat surface like a map or chart. Its primary focus lies in modeling reality to facilitate effective communication of spatial information. This field can be broadly categorized into two main branches: general cartography and thematic cartography. General cartography serves a broad audience and may encompass a variety of features. In contrast, thematic cartography concentrates on employing specific geographic themes tailored for a targeted audience. Contemporary cartography utilizes computer software like CAD, GIS, and specialized illustration tools to create maps. Common symbols found on maps include the legend, compass rose, bar scale, and title. The book aims to shed light on some of the unexplored aspects of this discipline. It also outlines the processes and applications of cartography in detail. It will serve as a valuable source of reference for those interested in this field.
