Abstract: This paper examines the utility of hard and soft data in computer cartography, with respect both to the method of data acquisition and to the type of information recorded. The potential and problems of linking computer aided analysis with automated cartographic representation are considered. By way of illustrative examples, the objectives of two case studies in Berlin and Karlsruhe are stated and some of the relevant cartographical results reproduced.
