Description:
The past year has seen advances in the discussion and development of guidelines for cartographic professionals engaged in the art and science of mapmaking. These basic guiding principles are akin to and the foundation for a code of ethics for mapmaking, and they give rise to and provide the justification for actionable strategies that help direct and assess a mapmaker’s decisions. Resources related to the strategies provide a better understanding of and/or practical experience with the skills for ethical mapmaking. Existing strategies and resources created or endorsed by professional cartography and GIScience organizations will be seen as more reliable and authoritative. This panel focuses on the development of the guidelines, collection of the resources, articulation of the strategies, and dissemination and acceptance tactics. The goal is sketch out a roadmap for mapmakers to develop the skills and knowledge to instill actionable ethics into our practice of professional mapmaking.
