Over the past 50 years it has been in mapping business, Tokyo Cartographic has seen its products evolve substantially as the roles of maps as well as of map-making changed dramatically over those years. Not simply as a tool to identify geographical locations, todays maps serve as a database for information of many kinds associated with values, for multiple use to store, to display and to communicate. The latest developments are described as seen in our products in terms of the three key words: collaborative map-making, intelligent maps, and GIS (Geographic Information System) based information.(1)Through ages, map making has always been a collaborative process involving different fields of expertise. Such collaboration in modern map-making needs to be interdisciplinary to reflect advances in varied fields of technology. (2)Our focus is to develop intelligent maps by adding value to conventional geographical maps, namely, such maps that help users understand and make decisions by presenting selective data and information in visualized form. (3)We have originally developed and marketed a GIS software that allows general users to generate geographically identified spatial information to suit their individual needs in easy manner and at low cost.
