Cartographic Perspectives Issue #103 released

Cartographic Perspectives #103

An increase in the number of articles submitted to the journal has yielded a particularly long issue at 114 pages, one that features three research articles, entries in the Practical Cartographer’s Corner and Visual Fields sections, and an assortment of book reviews from across the spectrum of cartography. It is my hope that any reader can find one (or hopefully several) topics of interest in this issue.

I want to thank everyone who has contributed to this issue—the authors, the reviewers, the editorial team, and the NACIS community for its continued support. Cartographic Perspectives, a truly open-access journal covering the breadth of cartography, remains a gem. I am thankful to have been entrusted with its care.
