Maps in Our Lives
Monday July 28, 2008 from 8:30am - 5:00pm
Library of Congress
101 Independence Ave Se
Washington, District of Columbia 20003 Get Directions
This exhibition explores four constituent professions represented by the ACSM - surveying, cartography, geodesy and geographic information systems (GIS) - and draws on both the Library's historic map collections and the ACSM collection in the Library of Congress. The exhibit also features a video that provides a historical and spatial comparison of the surveying maps featured in this exhibit. These maps are overlaid with contemporary GIS data of the same area and show the power of GIS in presenting and interpreting landscape over time.
