Policy Issues in Modern Cartography contains the views of national mapping agencies, legal scholars, the library community, the private sector and academia on these and many other important issues. The book begins with perspectives from national mapping agencies in Britain, Canada and the United States followed by a survey of the situation in Asia. The next three chapters deal primarily with legal issues such as copyright and intellectual property from both North American and European perspectives. Chapter 8 presents an important perspective on the key issues by a representative of the private sector followed by six chapters written primarily by academics including an important contribution by a map librarian. The volume concludes with an assessment of the challenges remaining.
He produced two of the world’s first computer atlases in 1970. His many publications continue to have a major impact on the field. In 1997, he introduced the innovative new paradigm of cybercartography. He and his team are creating a whole new genre of online multimedia and multisensory atlases including several in cooperation with indigenous communities. He has also published several influential contributions to development studies and many of his publications deal with the relationship between cartography and development in both a national and an international context.

The general focus of this collective study is the impact of the information technology revolution on modern cartography including such topics as publication and information distribution policies, incorporating author rights and intellectual property issues. There are very different approaches to these problems and this is what the editor of the publication wished to illustrate by inviting specialists from various countries to participate. These people offer a vision of the majority of the great established policies concerning cartography as much from a government point of view as from that held by a private company or academic organisation.......The publication is very well edited.....This work really makes one reflect on the future not only in terms of the subject matter and approach of cartography, but also in terms of the use of data itself.
