It has been suggested

that Map design be merged into this article or section. (Discuss)

Map design is the most important part of cartography. It is a set of methods that help cartographic designers to convey the info to the map user.

Magnetic storage

It's not just magnetic storage anymore. Electronic data used to be stored only on magnetic media - like hard disks - but the range of storage devices now includes a lot of non-magnetic media. 80.247.88.200 — Preceding undated comment added 13:24, 5 December 2006 (UTC)Reply

symbolization vs. symbology

symbology is a more accurate word with relation to cartography, which describes the way in which symbols are chosen and used to create effective maps. though certainly not exclusive to this area, it is a common word in cartographic vocabulary, and furthermore connotes logic, knowing, and thought. on the other hand, symbolization does not necessarily relate to cartography and could be misleading by referring to other cognitive processes. see symbol. — Preceding unsigned comment added by J Borkowski (talkcontribs) 22:42, 24 August 2007 (UTC)Reply
