Notes compiled for proposed expansion[edit]

A convergence of participatory action research and geographic information technologies to represent peoples spatial knowledge, producing 2 and three dimensional maps to assist with descion making, assist with communiciation, assist with advocacy, and essentially assist empower local peoples to better determine own futures
Remainder of the proceedings/ book gives tools based plus issues based case studies of the use of participatory gis opr cultural mapping from across the world, including Indonesia Canada, African countries and more .. noting particularly some of the practical suggestions and ethics of this kind of research process
Asserts the emergence of indigenous succussful use of geographic information systems plus global positioning systems to communicate cultural knowledge and establish cultural soveriegnity over landscapes and resources, and proceeds to use a Hawaiian case study to explore some of the translation dilemmas of translating indigenous knowledges into positivist western cartographic knowledhge .. as well as explooring potential of more flexible less positivist cartography.
Article advocating cultural mapping as a useful tool, and even a precondition of cultural sensistive place branding and marketing by increasing awarenss of places' distinctive cultural resources (and retaining integrity of those resources, once understand their nature etc)
brief mention of the progress of heritage conservation from the Venice Charter through to Nara charter on authenticity, and the tension between conservation and public values .. making mention of paper by Young from Australia advocating cultural mapping as important tool for documenting and measuring how public values their heritage.
contains a number of trial projects or case studies in cultural mapping
This articile significantly matches the UNESCO quoted undetrstanding of culytural mapping as a key tool for preserving cultural diversity both by doucmenting endangered cultural heritage (tangible and intangible) but as an advocacy tool .. drawing on examples incluing a Kalahari case study, workin gin Australia etc
