Developing cartography
Description
Developing cartography involves systematically creating and updating accurate maps to represent geographic, social, and environmental data. This strategy enables better decision-making, resource allocation, and disaster response by providing clear spatial information. It addresses problems of outdated or incomplete mapping, supports infrastructure planning, and enhances navigation and territorial management. By integrating new technologies and local knowledge, developing cartography ensures that maps remain relevant tools for solving practical challenges in diverse contexts.
