Why Maps Matter in GIScience

open access: yesThe Cartographic Journal, 2006
or Real An important characteristic of maps is the fact that they represent selections from reality in an abstract way. Especially for presentation purposes, maps that look ‘empty’ might even work better than maps with an overloaded view. In an exploratory mode, an overloaded map could be very representative for the topic being studied, and via ...

GeoSimulations in 4D: Multi‐Dimensional Agent‐Based Model for Representing Dynamics of Southern Resident Killer Whales

open access: yesTransactions in GIS, Volume 29, Issue 7, November 2025.
ABSTRACT The Southern Resident killer whales (SRKW) are an endangered species that occupy marine environments on the west coast of North America, including the Salish Sea. Representing marine species in this environment can be achieved by multidimensional space–time simulation modeling that provides more information about locations and behaviors for ...

Mitigating Heat Stress by Reducing Solar Exposure in Pedestrian Routing

open access: yesTransactions in GIS, Volume 29, Issue 6, September 2025.
ABSTRACT Due to climate change, heat stress is an increasing health risk in cities that requires adaptation measures from both citizens and city planning. This study proposes a routing service to reduce solar exposure for pedestrians and investigates its potential to reduce heat stress from both individual and planning perspectives.
