Lines, contours and legends: coordinates for vernacular mapping

摘要: Harnessing the cartographic attributes of line, contour and legend, this paper generates a conceptual vocabulary attentive to proliferation in everyday mapping. By developing theoretical work that questions representational certitude cartography, argues attention needs be focused on non-representational vectors This is establish grounds for future empirical research into quotidian cartographies their politics. Instead categorizing these variegated, mapping practices as either ‘counter’ or ‘indigenous’ movements, notion ‘vernacular mapping’ proposed one way which geographers might begin encounter vibrant micropolitics contemporary cartography.
