No longer offered. It’s in Waterloo’s scanned calendars from 1973–74 to 1983–84 (before that, 1964–65 to 1972–73 used the number for Cartography and Cartography 0* Introduction to Cartography and Air Photo Interpretation Note |* Introduction to Quantitative Research Methods and Cartography '0* Introduction to Cartography and Air Photo Interpretation '1* Introduction to Quantitative Research Methods /2* Computer Programming and Selected Terminal Systems); the 1995–96 to 2023–24 calendars are on ucalendar.
Basic concepts involved in the analysis and use of existing types of cartographic products. Background theory of the production and reproduction of topographic and thematic maps, including historical development, collection of data and symbolization.
As printed in the 1973–74 to 1983–84 calendars, read by OCR; the scanned page is the original.
