A M Kirby and D Tarn

Environment and Planning A, 1976, vol. 8, issue 5, 507-513

Abstract: The paper justifies an intermediate-technology approach to computer mapping, and discusses the application of SYMAP to the presentation of census data. The problems of base-map preparation, data manipulation, and the presentation of line-printer output are all discussed. An example of finished output and an operational FORTRAN program for data amalgamation are presented.
