The Cartography Networks Project intends to explore the relationships between different Medieval and Renaissance world maps, like the Medieval Mappaemundi, and create a “social network” web to track the ways that the different maps influenced each other. This project intends to track changes in cartography by exploring map orientation, center, shape, content, location, classification, and more. Through this research, we will be able to get a better understanding of how cartography changed throughout the Middle Ages, the role of religion in influencing depictions of space, and the function of a map in the pre-modern world.
