Data Collection - A crucial step in map making.

Authentic data is a key element in making good, genuine map and Surveying is a common method of collecting primary data from the real world. But in GIS, getting mappable data is a multi-step procedure.




This process bores me to death. I hate working on making usable data rather then making maps! But then, it is a part of cartographer’s work. So I guess, I should start enjoying it like I enjoy the creative part of mapping!

Here, you can see how miserable the life would be if one is engage in only data collection. I have lots of compassion for those Google Guys in video!
