Journal of Maps is concerned, broadly, with social and physical processes that take place on a geographical scale. Topics could include, for example, footfall in retail marketing, the spread of bird flu or location of geological faults, the common theme being the use of maps or spatial diagrams to advance understanding.
Taylor & Francis is committed to the current Editorial policy and this will remain under the exclusive control of the journal's Editor-in-Chief, Dr. Mike Smith.

Annual Best Map Prize
Journal of Maps Best Map Winner: A Map of 21st Century Conflicts in Europe
Chosen by the editorial team, the award for the 2011 "Best Map" goes to Giedre Beconyte, Vilmantas Alekna and Inga Rociute (Vilnius University) for their depiction of conflict and terrorism in Europe during the 21 century. The authors have synthesized a great deal of relatively inaccessible and dispersed information, and presented it in a way that is visually informative, particularly for such an emotive topic. It presents a good blend of geography, history, and cartography, forming the basis of a continued MSc cartography class at Vilnius University.
As with past winners, we have sponsored a limited print run of the map which is available for purchase at a worldwide delivered price of £10:
