“a systematic and coherent
collection of geographical data in
analogue or digital form,
representing a particular area and/
or one or more geographical
themes, together with tools for
information retrieval, analysis and
presentation.”
Koop (1995)

“...the basis for how people
conceive the world in which they
live,” and “...it is an inclusive form
of cartography that invites the
user to explore the world through
maps,”

- presentation part of Masters research program looking at developing a multi-publishing framework for atlas production\n- research born from working on the 7th edition of the Jacaranda Atlas\n- design, production and publishing of a school atlas is a costly and risky venture (Sandford 1985)\n- demands on the publisher by the users (students and teachers) and the curriculum to provide quality content in an engaging and informative way is ever-present.\n- traditional print-based media, such as newspapers, magazines and books, have created complimentary digital editions for their users. At the same time, the paradigm of how the user consumes this information is changing, as too how the information can readily be incorporated into multiple delivery systems.\n

Publishing their first atlas in Australia in 1871, the George Philip and Son brand was to remain with Australian students until the late 1970s\n- The firm of H. E. C. Robinson began in 1895 by Herbert Edward Cooper Robinson. During the 1940s the Australian publisher, H. E. C. Robinson, began publishing student atlases.\n- The atlas that was to have perhaps the greatest influence in terms of design was the Jacaranda Atlas. First published in 1969 this atlas went on to dominate school book lists from the 1970s to the present day.\n- By the 1990s other scholastic publishers joined Jacaranda in the student atlas market. Names such as Longman Cheshire, Macmillan, Oxford University Press and Heinemann were vying for the educational dollar.\n- The major student atlases of today—Jacaranda, Heinemann and Oxford—have moved into the digital age. Previous editions included a CD-ROM with an interactive version of the atlas\n- The most recent publications of the Jacaranda Atlas and the Oxford Atlas 3 provide companion websites.\n

Since the development of Google Maps in 2005 publishers have been looking to provide an attractive and informative way of providing atlas content through the world wide web.\nAdvantage for publishers is that they can control the look and feel of the maps, making them consistent with the published atlas\n- mapping can be seamless global coverage\n- scale varies throughout the coverage. user can zoom in and out, plus panning\nDisadvantages are that students no longer understand the concepts of map projections, as there is one continuous projection covering the globe; direction is no longer important as the map always has north at the top of the screen\n- dynamic data can be added from geoRSS feeds or user created data\n- displaying tile-based mapping and large quantities of data requires high speed broadband connection. this is not always available. NBN by 2018 should reach 93% of Australians, which may overcome accessibility issues. By 2020 every school should be connected\n- not all students have access to the same technology - different operating systems, different hardware, different screen sizes and resolutions\n- suitable content needs to be created appropriate to the age of the user. can be difficult to design and display content suitable for a wide spectrum of ages\n

Since the release of the iPad by Apple in 2010 technology companies have been clamoring to make a presence in the tablet device market. \nThis technology allows the user to remove the need for weighty textbooks and store their library on one device. \nability to access content wirelessly and through the 3G mobile phone network. \nFunctionality such as twin cameras for capturing still and video content; microphone for capturing audio and speaker for playback; digital compass and assisted GPS (wireless + 3G model only); 16GB, 32GB and 64GB storage; high resolution colour display; and accelerometer and 3D gyro for sensing the position of the tablet all provide in creating a user experience that encourages investigation and stimulates learning.\n- publishers have a choice of containing the atlas and associated data on the device, or streaming content via 3G or wifi\n- an issue in designing for tablet devices is the variations in screen dimensions. at least 4 different sizes amongst current models\n- publishers need to develop a delivery method that is platform neutral. atlas needs to operate on iOS and Android platforms as well as via the web. delivery could be browser-based, a stand-alone app, an ebook or something else\n- content needs to be delivered with an interactive element to engage users\n- the mobility of tablet devices allows for spatial and aspatial data collection in field work. Users can then share and interrogate this data to solve real world problems\n- Access to online databases allows students to search for places and features never before presented in a textbook atlas. Rather than search through cumbersome gazetteer indexes with alpha-numeric references, students can quickly type a place name and have it appear on screen.\n\n

Since the release of the iPad by Apple in 2010 technology companies have been clamoring to make a presence in the tablet device market. \nThis technology allows the user to remove the need for weighty textbooks and store their library on one device. \nability to access content wirelessly and through the 3G mobile phone network. \nFunctionality such as twin cameras for capturing still and video content; microphone for capturing audio and speaker for playback; digital compass and assisted GPS (wireless + 3G model only); 16GB, 32GB and 64GB storage; high resolution colour display; and accelerometer and 3D gyro for sensing the position of the tablet all provide in creating a user experience that encourages investigation and stimulates learning.\n- publishers have a choice of containing the atlas and associated data on the device, or streaming content via 3G or wifi\n- an issue in designing for tablet devices is the variations in screen dimensions. at least 4 different sizes amongst current models\n- publishers need to develop a delivery method that is platform neutral. atlas needs to operate on iOS and Android platforms as well as via the web. delivery could be browser-based, a stand-alone app, an ebook or something else\n- content needs to be delivered with an interactive element to engage users\n- the mobility of tablet devices allows for spatial and aspatial data collection in field work. Users can then share and interrogate this data to solve real world problems\n- Access to online databases allows students to search for places and features never before presented in a textbook atlas. Rather than search through cumbersome gazetteer indexes with alpha-numeric references, students can quickly type a place name and have it appear on screen.\n\n
Atlases have moved from a teaching to a learning tool\n- atlases have evolved from a hardcopy volume to multimedia delivery where users consume information, to a creation tool where users can interact with data and create their own data for interrogation\n- the user experience of an atlas has changed from a static reference source to an immersive multimedia experience\n- new technology enables collaborative learning, where students work with classmates to solve geographic problems.\n

Production challenges for cartographers\n- creating multiple products - print, web and mobile - from one data source\n- ‘design once—publish many’ concept\n- complex data needs to be generalised for display at varying scales, as too live data\n- publishers need to determine the cost structure/business model for how the delivery of such an atlas would work. Is it subscription based or a once off fee? Can it be placed on a book list? Will it be sold through an online store (iTunes, Android market, Blackberry App World)?\n

Design considerations for a multi-publishing framework\n- static versus dynamic data. Static data can easily be designed for, but dynamic data is an unknown quantity. Data feeds from geoRSS could have a single point or thousands of points. How can this data be displayed appropriately on a multi-scale map?\n- atlas mapping may have many purposes. detailed reference map shown at multiple scales down to street level mapping, or thematic base mapping with dynamic content overlaid\n- design needs to be age-appropriate. users from varying age groups and different abilities will be accessing the same mapping \n

How has the student atlas changed?\n- has moved from a reference tool to a learning tool to a creation tool\n- commercial realities and technological advances have moved publishers to adapt delivery methods.\n- eventually hardcopy atlases may go the way of the dinosaur\n- research by Robinson, Bertin, Wiegand and others still relevant. current research in web mapping still developing (Brewer, et al)\n- How will maps ‘engage’ the audience, enticing them to explore and interact to learn? Wiegand (2006) speculated about the inclusion of GIS software in the classroom and students using GPS in their studies. A functional age-appropriate atlas presented on a tablet device (with GPS) could combine these two requirements, to be an effective learning tool.\n
