Laurent Jégou, « Recent semiotic trends in thematic cartography », HAL SHS (Sciences de l’Homme et de la Société), ID : 10.1080/23729333.2025.2481364
The research endeavour to study the capacity of graphical signs and their combination to express ideas has kept the researchers busy for a long time, especially with the progress made in human visual perception and cognition and the progressive availability of new media for images (screens, augmented or virtual reality…). The volume of works in this research theme has gradually been replaced by more methodological ones, but the epistemological question about the role and the function of maps has remained active, and it involves semiotics.In this short paper, I will try to highlight new semiotic trends in thematic cartography, on the conceptual and practical sides, from a subjective collection of findings.
