Abstract
  • A program, Color Choropleth Mapping System (CCMS), has been developed to provide high quality color choropleth maps at the Geography Department at Oregon State University. The program operates interactively and is menu-driven. When developing the software for mapping programs, programmers need to be aware of cartographic theory, as well as the relationship between maps, computers, and users. If color is utilized, the programmer should be familiar with color theory, perception and specification. By understanding more than the basics of computer science and programming, programmers will be able to develop software to produce high quality maps that will convey the information intended, and provide decision makers with a valuable and powerful problem-solving and planning tool.
