Implementing Clean, Consistent Cartography at a University-Wide Scale

The document discusses implementing consistent cartography across a university. A GIS specialist at the University of Minnesota Duluth created cartographic guidelines to ensure all maps produced at the university followed the same design standards. This included font styles, color schemes, basemaps, and labeling conventions. By establishing university-wide cartographic standards, maps would have a consistent look and feel that improved communication and the user experience.
