- W2726600782 abstract "Computers have become such an integral part of the mapping process that it is now virtually impossible to consider mapping without computers. This is true of all areas involved: production of conventional maps, research on new applications, data processing for the auxiliary systems, and nontechnical or administrative utilization. Although this has happened within the span of a few years, this union of computers and mapping is deep rooted. It is a point of pride within the mapping agencies that the earliest use of computers was not only accepted, but actually encouraged and promoted by their enthusiastic adoption of what was then an original and startling innovation. The various steps that constitute the mapmaking process have been reviewed in this chapter. Each step involves the use of computers, and it has become obvious that their use is constantly expanding. When the programmable desktop calculators became available, many mapping applications were withdrawn from the large general-purpose computers and placed on these small but powerful devices. In some respects this is the completion of a circle, the same computations which had been transferred from the old mechanical desktop calculators to the electronic computers have now returned to desktop instruments. From another viewpoint, particularly of the user, the only similarity is the desktop location. Long tedious strings of arithmetical manipulations are now performed by depressing one button. This analogy holds true for mapmaking in general. Its basic purpose, to present pictorial information about the earth in a measurable format, remains unchanged. The methods and procedures have been irrevocably altered by data reduction via computer. The instrumentation of mapmaking has been redesigned by the same explosion in technology that has spawned generation after generation of computers within a few years. The combination of mapping and computers is both happy and successful." @default.
