Cultural Aspects of Cartographic Creation: Use of Mental Maps in Cross-cultural Research

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Although the interdisciplinary study of the cultural aspects of cartographic creation has in the recent past been dealt with in an indirect manner, for example by J.B. Harley and D. Woodward in the project "History of Cartography", the question has not as yet been adequately taken up on a complex level. The author of the present study attempts a more complex approach in his treatment of the problem. This paper includes a theoretical introduction devoted to map contents, map style and map language, whichtogether represent the greatest potential cultural differences embodied by a map, considered here in its role as a depiction of reality and a visual manifestation of culture. A portion of the study focusing on method assesses the procedures employed inthe formation of cognitive and mental maps by users and map creators. These maps may be used to discover cultural specifics of cartographic creation. The final portion of the study presents the findings of a field study of the mental maps
