This course is a discussion and demonstration of the essential cartographic principles and practices used for designing maps. The focus is on techniques for creating maps that effectively communicate single/multi-variant qualitative and quantitative spatial data to the viewer. Through numerous hands-on exercises, participants will have the opportunity to use most of the map production tools provided with ESRI software products to prepare raw data and produce a variety of thematic maps. Class format: approximately 50% lecture, 50% software application.
