| Description | The paper introduces the uncertainty sources, measures and visualization methods within geographic data. Basic theoretical and conceptual assumptions for uncertainty visualization are described. Uncertainty visualization methods based on intrinsic visual variables are discussed in more detail taking into account the Bertin`s theory of cartographic communication. Uncertainty issues in natural hazards and emergency management is further depicted and contextual cartographic visualization proposed as a viable method for efficient uncertainty visualization. |
