Generally, this kind of research investigates the risks and potentials of VGI and user-generated online maps for the greater goals of justice, equality and democracy. Meanwhile, web 2.0 cartographies have ceased to be something new. The once revolutionary collaborative mapping platforms OpenStreetMap and Wikimapia, as well as the triumphant incursion of a technology called the “map mashup” have long passed their tenth anniversaries. Today, interactive maps have become a standard feature of user’s online experiences. Contemporary “neo”-geographers have at their disposal a diverse range of APIs, script libraries and data repositories, enabling them to create beautiful maps for all kinds of purposes. Yet, it is exactly the prevalence and mainstreaming of web 2.0-cartographies which demands an ongoing investigation of their societal imprints and implications, which have not been satisfyingly explored so far. In this session, we welcome papers discussing: - Characteristics and motivations of contributors to crowdsourced web maps such as OpenStreetMap, Google Map Maker, and Wikimapia - Studies of the political economy surrounding the online production of VGI, including corporate influence in maintaining or supporting VGI platforms - Effects of Web 2.0 cartographies on human perceptions of the landscape - Critical analysis of cartographic selection, classification, and symbolization in Web 2.0 maps - Critical code studies investigating the anatomy and genesis of web maps - Innovative uses of VGI or Web 2.0 maps for social or environmental justice efforts - Impacts and embeddedness of collaborative web maps in political debates and conflicts - Questions of nation state sovereignty vis à vis user-generated geodata beyond the jurisdictional access of authorities - Postcolonial perspectives on reproductions of power relations and inequalities through web cartographies *How to participate:* If you are interested in participating in this session, please submit your abstract to AAG and then send the presenter PIN, paper title, and abstract to [email protected] or [email protected] by *October 27, 2016*. ------------------------------ ------------------ Sterling Quinn Central Washington University [email protected] ------------------------------ *Reply to Group Online <http://community.aag.org/communities/all-discussions/postreply/?MID=18242&GroupId=19>* *View Thread <http://community.aag.org/communities/community-home/digestviewer/viewthread/?GroupId=19&MID=18242&tab=digestviewer>* *Recommend <http://community.aag.org/communities/community-home/digestviewer/viewthread/?GroupId=19&MID=18242&MessageKey=7de01cc5-3c14-413c-98de-36679e9f4038&cmd=rate&cmdarg=add>* *Forward <http://community.aag.org/communities/all-discussions/forwardmessages/?GroupId=19&MID=18242>* You are subscribed to "Geographic Information Science and Systems" as [email protected].
