What could perceptive and sensitive mapping be used for? Examples of use in urban planning projects

Résumé

Maps are a common and respected reference source for located information. A historical inventory of the objects des ignated by the term map shows the diversity of their media, shapes, sizes, orientations, information portrayed, symbols used, etc. Contemporary maps, in particular topographical maps from national mapping agencies or road maps, show that some of their characteristics such as orientation, categories of information displayed, mapping conventions have stabilized while demonstrating their ability to represent an immense variety of landscapes. An almost unlimited and also standard ized cartographic offer exists. However, proposals and applications for alternative mapping have being developed. They are based on varied uses of the location and of display of information, which are different from that usually mapped. These approaches claim to be based on perceptive and sensitive mapping, or if they do not use this term, they rely on concepts and methods that connote this approach. The objective of this article is to analyze the contexts in which perceptive and sensitive mapping approaches can be used in a profitable way and then to characterize their use. The analysis is based on experiences in teaching and research settings involving urban planning students.
