| dc.description | Practical guidelines and theorical principales of cartography are explained with particular relevance to mapping data of relevance to fisheries, especially for developing countries. The concepts of scale and relief as they apply both to coastal planning and to interpretation and display of marine and fishermen's charts are outlined. Design criteria are suggested for preparing maps and other visual displays, including basic questions of visual clarity, ease of interpretation, and the use of colou r and alphanumeric information. The use of supplementary graphics together with thematic mapping is encouraged in providing an integrated approach to display of geographic and other types of information of relevance to fisheries and marine activities. Some guidelines equipment and procedures are suggested for graphics, drafting, and reproduction of illustrative material. Work plans and interview formats are suggested for field collection of basic data, as well as some suggestions for the use of aerial photography and for photointerpretation. Twelve case studies discussing the approaches used to prepare existing marine resource maps are given and analysed. A short directory of training institutes in related fields is provided. | |
