Digital Cartography

Digital cartography is the use of digital tools and technologies to create, analyze, and share maps. Unlike traditional paper maps, digital maps can be interactive, allowing users to zoom in, search for locations, and display various types of information, such as population density or terrain. This approach enhances accessibility and data visualization, making it easier for individuals and organizations to understand geographic information. Applications range from navigation apps to web-based mapping platforms, helping users make informed decisions based on spatial data. Digital cartography plays a critical role in urban planning, environmental monitoring, and many other fields.
