The Future of Cartography

Traditional cartography might have been about all the way back to taking copper sheets and punching holes in them or marking the ridges so that you can run off a few copies with contact printing. But I think those tools have changed and opportunities for cartographers to be making just single use maps maybe like a map for a sign board are becoming harder and harder to make a living from. There's definitely opportunities in these global maps. They're mainly driven by programmers computer science and user interface designers without that much reference to cartography. So if this cartographer is out there who are interested, there's a huge amount of opportunity in getting involved in this side of the industry.
