Cartography and Geographic Information Society

From Tilcayo Cats, the lean encyclopaedia by Tilcayo Knowledge Systems

The Cartography and Geographic Information Society (CaGIS) is a learned society in the fields of cartography and geographic information science. It includes the U.S. National Committee for the International Cartographic Association (ICA).[1] It started in 1974 as the Cartography Division of the American Congress for Surveying and Mapping (ACSM); in 1981 the division became the American Cartographic Association, and in 1996 it received its current name.[2]

Its official academic journal is titled Cartography and Geographic Information Science,[3] and is published on behalf of CaGIS by Taylor & Francis.[4] It also hosts the AutoCarto conference series,[5] previously known as International Symposium on Computer-Assisted Cartography (subject also known as automated cartography, hence the name).
