Subject: Journal of Maps: Last Issue of 2008
The Journal of Maps is pleased to announce the publication of it's last issue of 2008. This issue is a "general" issue and incorporates a wide range of material including geology, dasymetric mapping, sub-national mapping of human development and transportation.
This issue is also unique in that it marks the completion of the special issue on "Transport Networks" that has run through the year, with papers first published at the beginning of 2008. An editorial from Professor Chris Wright wraps up this special issue.
Finally there is the annual editorial summarising the activities of the journal over the year and announcing the winner of our inaugural "Best Map" for 2008. The winner will have their map published in a limited 1000 copy print run which will be available for purchase "at cost".
The table of contents is copied below and also available at:

I would also like to draw attention to an issue of the Journal of Maps Student Edition which has just been published. These papers resulted out of the Remote Sensing and Photogrammetric Society's annual student meeting and can be found here (and ToC copied below):

We would like to further promote JoMSE to all research students as an excellent "first publishing" opportunity which can occur early on in a research career when data have been gathered but not analysed. One of our recent authors commented:
"it is very exciting and such a good opportunity, not to mention a fantastic learning curve as a new academic."
I hope we can encourage many more students to share their work.
