Introducing: TECHNICAL NOTES AND EPHEMERA

The new Cartographica editorial team is pleased to announce a new
section in the journal entitled ‘Technical Notes and Ephemera’. This
section will contain research notes, technical information, opinions,
news items and occasional humor and trivia related to all aspects of
cartography, geographic information and geovisualisation, including
issues on:

* newsworthy events and issues (local, national and international)
* education and training
* research summaries from universities and government agencies
* commentaries on ideas and products
* evaluation of maps and data sources
* library and internet resources
* tips for cartographic production
* humour and trivia

All submissions are encouraged: it is anticipated these would normally
be of shorter length than full journal articles (2-6 pages).  Those of
interest to the international community and materials of interest to a
broad audience will be given priority for publication. Where
appropriate, peer review will apply. Links to web pages and references
to contemporary resources are encouraged to include material that may
not otherwise be available in published journals.

Submission details for Cartographica can be found at:

All submissions or questions about this new section should be mailed or
e-mailed to:      [log in to unmask]
