Reviews

This book provides a really critical contribution to summarizing, conceptualizing, and discussing the main problems and solutions in map generalization to date. ... I recommend this book to everyone who works with map generalization and wants to be productive in solving his or her tasks, as well as those who are interested in understanding short- and mid-term perspectives in map generalization developments. (Timofey Samsonov, Cartographic Perspectives, Issues 80, 2015)
