No data is associated with this publication.
Abstract
In this video, Robin Grossinger discusses the relationship between maps, landscapes, and ecologies, and notes how his organization, the San Francisco Estuary Institute, has utilized maps to attempt to create dispassionate records of ecological change. Laura Kurgan, of Columbia University's Spatial Information Design Lab, discusses the relationship between allegedly objective data and mapping, noting that "there is no such thing as raw data: it is already a representation." UCLA's Anastasia Loukaitou-Sideris closes the session with a response to both speakers.
