Publisher: National Centre for Maps and Cartographic Heritage

e-Perimetron is a pluralist peer reviewed international journal which does
not obey any particular ideological, theoretical or methodological approach
in dealing with humanistic, artistic, scientific and technological issues
related to map history and cartographic heritage. The journal is published
quarterly during the four seasons of the year.

e-Perimetron is intended to function as a modern medium for the advancement
and dissemination of knowledge and research related to the involvement of
new analytical methods and digital information and communication
technologies as applied to a manifold of approaches affine to history of
maps and cartography in the large.

All geoinformatics, geomatics and infographics tools which are or could
applied to the historical domain of cartography and maps are welcome as
potential topics of interest. This does not mean at all that cartographic
issues as seen from a pure historical point of view are not accepted. On the
contrary are heartly invited since they could offer fertile grounds for
discussion stimulating new ideas and opening new approaches towards the
eventual coupling of pure history with modern cartographic processes.

Aim of the venture is to bring together, in harmonic convergence, historians
of cartography and maps, cartography scholars and  experts in new digital
technologies dealing with cartography and maps in order to create a common
space of research targeting at the broadening of cartographic and map
history expertise.

Authors are invited to contribute with three types of contributions: Papers,
Notes, and Reviews of books, conferences and activities relevant to the aims
of the journals. Translated papers from other languages into English can
also be invited or selected by the editors in the form of paper or note.
Submission of papers will be taken to imply that they present original,
unpublished work not under consideration for other publication.

Contributions are submitted in English or French, the official languages of
the International Cartographic Association.
