Abstract Creating a smellmap of a city is a subjective, collaborative exercise. During a series of smellwalks local participants foreground their sense of smell and name perceived aromas emanating from the urban smell-scape.

Data and conversations arising from the walks are “analyzed,” and a representative smellscape of the city is visualized as a map. Icloud removal tool download for mac. Scents—the nasal stimuli and a catalyst for discussion—accompany the map. As a map of what we do not know, indications of geolocated smell possibilities and ephemeral scents combine visualization with the olfactory to place the emphasis on human interaction with sensory data to create meaning and an understanding of place.

Explore and refine data, create beautiful maps, export information for the web using Google Maps and Google Earth (via our KML Export capabilities). Merge data from several sources. Get local data from your government in CSV Latitude and Longitude (or in your state plane, Cartographica has a deep understanding of Coordinate Reference Systems and projections), add to that with satellite or topographical information using Bing Maps or Web Map Services such as Terraserver, bring in street information from US Census Bureau TIGER, and see them all together in one place.

Use Cartographica's sophisticated import, geocoding, manual editing, and analysis tools to create and edit data and then present the data using Google Earth, Adobe Illustrator, PDF, your web site, and more.
