GI_Forum publishes high quality original research across the transdisciplinary field of Geographic Information Science (GIScience). The journal provides a platform for dialogue among GI-Scientists and educators, technologists and critical thinkers in an ongoing effort to advance the field and ultimately contribute to the creation of an informed GISociety. Submissions concentrate on innovation in education, science, methodology and technologies in the spatial domain and their role towards a more just, ethical and sustainable science and society. GI_Forum implements the policy of open access publication after a double-blind peer review process through a highly international team of seasoned scientists for quality assurance. Special emphasis is put on actively supporting young scientists through formative reviews of their submissions. Only English language contributions are published.


Starting 2016, GI_Forum publishes two issues a Year.

Abstract

Social media provide a fast-moving ecosystem for the rapid dissemination of digital maps. Some maps become viral, reaching massive audiences across diverse networks. A new challenge for cartographers is to characterize the design and dissemination of viral maps in social media. Here, we present a prototype visualization tool called MapReverse which allows users to explore collections of map images that are similar to a given viral map. Similar maps are identified using a combination of reverse image search and machine learning image analysis. In some cases, we can identify original sources for maps; more commonly we can identify many modifications of the original viral maps. This system provides a glimpse into the evolution of cartographic design as found in viral social media.

Keywords: virality, cartography, design, image analysis, disinformation
