Extractions: The European Voyages of Exploration In the early period of European exploration, captains had rudimentary navigation techniques and a fairly detailed set of Mediterranean portolanos ( charts) showing the bodies of water, landmasses, and ports. These charts were not drawn to a grid system of degrees, but were based on compass findings and estimated distances. From this point of view, cartography was very similar to early astronomy in that the product was paradoxically the result of both scientific and metaphysical endeavours. Some astronomers were attracted to the study of stars because of their interest in astrology. The same is true of cartographers whose main purpose was not to discover what actually existed but, rather, to rationalise the world around preconceived notions of religion and philosophy. Ptolemaic Style Map 1432 Nevertheless, it is possible to make a few general statements about the practice of cartography. If it is possible to identify one great influence, it would undoubtedly be that of Claudius Ptolemaeus, or Ptolemy, (130 C.E.) and the Arab geographers who followed. In 151 C.E., Ptolemy published a work on map-making called Geographia From this intellectual heritage sprang the twin tendencies of medieval European geographers and cartographers to create maps that were, generally speaking, either fanciful or factual. On the one hand, there was a tendency to construct a symmetrically perfect design of God's creation that also incorporated the metaphysical beliefs of Europe. For example, the Psalter Map of the thirteenth century depicted a world with Christ at the top and dragons crushed beneath him at the bottom. Furthermore, in the Psalter Map, Jerusalem was the centre of the world, and legends and myths were inscribed in places instead of geographical data, thus effectively blending fact and fantasy.

This course will introduce the basic principles of map design and production. Lectures and reading assignments will address the science of established cartographic design principles, including page layout, scale and projection, generalization, simplification, classification and symbolization, color, tone, and techniques for representing surfaces. Lab exercises will focus on practical applications of cartographic theory in the design and production of maps using computer graphic software.

In Geography one must contemplate the extent of the entire Earth, as well as its shape, and its position under the heavens...the length of its days and nights, the stars which are fixed overhead, the stars which move above the horizon, and the stars which never rise above the horizon at all...

Extractions: ...to Geog 353 Laboratory Information and Projects News Flashes: 1/7/03: Dr. Krygier will offer Geography 353 Fall semester, 2003. Geography 353 reviews essential elements of cartographic design and visualization in the context of geographic information systems (GIS). The core of this course is the laboratory project: students will locate data on the world wide web (WWW), process the data so it can be mapped in ArcView (GIS and mapping software), and design and produce a series of maps based on the data. Students will learn to construct basic HTML pages, containing the project maps, which will be placed on the WWW at the end of the semester. Lab work is informed by lectures which focus on the concepts, frameworks, and technical issues of cartographic design and visualization. Course Prerequisites: none, but taking Geography 222: The Power of Maps first is highly recommended.

Students go on to graduate programs in geography, architecture, business, urban and regional planning, community development, and environmental management. In recent years, several graduates have gone into careers in cartography and geographic information science. All geography courses count toward the general distribution requirement in social science except courses numbered 16, 96, 97 and 98. Geography 16 counts toward the general distribution requirement in mathematics and natural science. The course which satisfies the international diversity requirement is numbered 11. The course which satisfies the domestic diversity requirement is numbered 42. The senior capstone requirement in geography will be satisfied by completing one 88 level geography seminar.

The spatial perceptions of geographers are translated into map form via various cartographic techniques. This program addresses both the academic and technical aspects of cartography, leading to application and practical experience - the latter through a practicum and employment in the Ohio University Cartographic Center, an extension of the Cartography Program and the Department of Geography. The program stresses a strong background in geography, emphasizes cartography-related courses, and complements these courses with specific courses from related areas.
