Hello,
There is an interesting article in Popular Science online at:
http://www.popsci.com/technology/article/2010-12/you-are-here-finding-cartographys-place-new-digital-ladscape
It discusses the recent incident between Nicaragua and Costa Rica. Part
of the headline states "Mapmakers have more power than ever. But who are
the mapmakers?" I thought that others might find it of interest.
