Abstract


Mark Harrower, Anthony C. Robinson, Robert E. Roth and Ben Sheesely wrote the e-textbook Cartography 2.0 and made it available on the Internet at no charge. The textbook’s website (http://Cartography2.org) explains their reasoning, which was also published in the Cartographic Perspectives journal (Cartography 2.0: For People Who Make Interactive Maps, Number 64, Fall 2009).

They elaborate on this in detail.
