Cartes mentales et documentation Ce dossier a été coordonné par le CRDP de Toulouse pour Savoirs CDI Rédaction du dossier : Karen Chabriac (CRDP Académie de Toulouse), Solène Font (CDDP du Tarn), Martine Manabéra (CDDP du Gers) Pour le comparatif des logiciels : Daniel Cléro (CDDP du Gers) Pour le scénario pédagogique : Armelle Mourtada, professeur documentaliste Carte mentale, carte de connaissances, carte heuristique, carte conceptuelle... de quoi s'agit-il ? De manière générale, une carte de connaissances est une représentation graphique d'un ensemble de connaissances d'un domaine. La carte heuristique [2] et la carte mentale désignent toutes deux des représentations graphiques arborescentes, hiérarchisées qui se développent autour d'une notion centrale, sans forcément insister sur la nature des relations qui existent entre les différents nœuds. Carte mentale : un nouveau concept ? Cette notion de représentation graphique de notions ou de concepts n'est pas nouvelle. Figure 1 Figure 2 De l'utilité des cartes mentales
Public Safety : Mobile Mapping for First Responders Last week at our headquarters we hosted a meeting of nearly 100 Public Safety and GIS Professionals as a part of the NAPSG Foundation User Group meetings series. After opening remarks from Esri President, Jack Dangermond, we conducted a Wildfire mapping exercise and used our mobile technology to map the fire. One of the mobile tools used to map the fire was an iPhone. Since August, we have had a free iPhone application on the app store ( In the context of our exercise, traditionally at a wildfire, a GIS Specialist will make maps based on reports from the field and infrared imagery using our desktop tools and the Fire Incident Mapping Tools (FIMT). In this exercise, lead by our Wildfire Specialist Tom Patterson, participants used ruggedized devices (like those used in the Gulf Oil Spill), iPhones, and iPads to map the fire. Additionally, teams in the field can be tracked (via the ArcGIS Mobile Field Crew Task).

Finding Your Way with Static Maps Since the introduction of the Google Maps service in 2005, online maps have taken off in a way not really possible before the invention of slippy map interaction. Although quickly followed by a plethora of similar services from both commercial and non-commercial parties, Google’s first-mover advantage, and easy-to-use developer API saw Google Maps become pretty much the de facto mapping service. It’s now so easy to add a map to a web page, there’s no reason not to. But there’s one crucial drawback to both the solution Google provides for you to drop into your page and the code developers typically implement themselves – they don’t work without JavaScript. A bit about JavaScript Back in October of this year, The Yahoo! The results surprised me. While the percentage of visitors with JavaScript disabled seems like a low number, keep in mind that small percentages of big numbers are also big numbers. That’s right, of course, and it got me thinking about what that two per cent means.
30 Superb Examples of Infographic Maps As you search the web you’ll come across a wide range of interactive and graphical maps. Deciding when, where and how to integrate or display a map on your site is the first step, the second should be what technology and illustrations to use. If you’re all about interaction, JQuery, Ajax, or Flash are all effective technologies that hold their own ground. Map illustrations are a dime a dozen however, a strong and balanced display of graphics, information, and colors is what makes an infographic stand out and reach its target audience effectively. As designers, we’re constantly searching for ways to improve and style our designs, this is exactly what the following 30 infographics and sites display below; the breaking of rules. Sites with Interactive Maps Illustrative Infographics Compiled exclusively for WDD by Liz Fulghum. Did we miss any great examples?
British Museum uses Google Street View technology to put thousands of objects online and curate Museum of the World The world will be able to tour the British Museum online thanks to a new alliance between curators and Google© British Museum Neil MacGregor, the Director of the British Museum, says a new Street View tour allowing access to the museum’s permanent gallery and more than 4,500 objects represents a modern version of the age of Enlightenment during which the museum was founded in 1753. The Admonitions Scroll dates from the 6th century© British Museum One of the most important Chinese scrolls in the British Museum’s collection – the 6th century Admonitions Scroll, which is usually only visible for a few months each year due to their fragility – has been vividly rendered for a global audience as part of the partnership with the Google Cultural Institute. The timeline-based Museum of the World© British Museum © British Museum “The world today has changed,” says MacGregor. “And this isn’t just about putting the collection online. What do you think?
Courthouse Christmas: Hamilton County, Hamilton, Texas Like Hood County, Hamilton County's courthouse is being renovated (above), but only the exterior. It has been in pretty bad shape (see photo on the left), with paint peeling on the columns, so the work was much needed. It's quite different now with a cupola on the top that apparently was only briefly there after its last renovation in 1931. The Texas Historical Commission grant for the renovation required that the cupola be included, but there's been some controversy locally about that, since the cupola was only on the courthouse a short time. Nevertheless, the lighting for the cupola is quite dramatic (below right), and I can see this as a focal point for future holiday decorations! The courthouses I've featured this week are in towns we pass through regularly, when we head south to see family in Austin or meet my parents for lunch in towns between ours and theirs.
