James Niehues has painted more than 200 panoramic resort maps. His 30-year body of work has changed how mountains are represented, and is familiar to many skiers. Charles Preppernau spoke with the artist to discuss mapping techniques, his new book The Man Behind the Maps, and his new Great American Landscapes Project. Mr. Niehues’ work can be found at jamesniehues.com.

Since their release in 2005, Google Maps-based tools have become the de facto solutions for a variety of online cartographic projects. Their success has been accompanied by a range of critiques denouncing the individualistic market-based logic imposed by these mapping services. Alternative options to this dominant model have been released since then; uMap is one of them. uMap is a free, open-source online mapping platform that builds on OpenStreetMap to enable anyone to easily publish web maps individually or collaboratively. In this paper, we propose to reflect on the potential and limits of uMap based on our own experiences of deploying it in six different mapping projects. Through these experiences, uMap appears particularly well-suited for collaborative mapping projects, due to its ease in connecting to remote data and its high level of interoperability with a range of other applications. On the other hand, uMap seems less relevant for crowdmapping projects, due to its lack of built-in options to manage and control public contributions. Finally, the open-source philosophy of uMap, combined with its simplicity of use and its strong collaborative capacity, make it a great option for activist mapping projects as well as for pedagogical purposes to teach a range of topics including online collaborative cartography.

Geographers are often asked “what is geography?”, and the number of answers to this question nearly equals the number of geographers. We (and others) argue that it is the spatial dimension that makes geography different, and that to do geography, one must communicate spatial information. Cartography is one of the key forms of spatial communication. However, the geographic literature often lacks maps. To examine this, we reviewed 67 years of the Annals of the American Association of Geographers to test any trends in the presence/absence of maps, the influence of editors, and how any trends related to changes in the field of geography. On average, 24% of the papers published did not contain maps. Roughly speaking, papers from the 1950s, mid-1970s through the 1980s, and from 2000–present were the least likely to contain maps. Papers in the 1960s, early 1970s, and mid-1990s contained the most. The influence of editors on the percentage of papers published without maps was significant, but weak. We found a relationship between the changes in numbers of papers with maps and broad changes in the field of geography. There was a slight increase in the number of publications that included maps during the quantitative revolution after World War II, which declined during the discipline’s shift toward social and critical geography in the 1960s and 1970s. In 2001, the format of the Annals changed from publishing all the articles in one section to dividing the publications in four thematic sections with different editors. From 2001–2017, the Physical Geography and Environmental Sciences section was the most likely to have maps (11.9% of articles without maps) while the People, Place, and Regions section was the least (47.7% without maps). Overall, the changes in the percentage of articles without maps can largely be explained by changes in the fields of geography and cartography—up to about 2000.
