The Conference Bonus

摘要

It is customary that, whenever the world's cartographers meet at the biennial International Cartographic Conferences (ICC), related activities also take place immediately before and after, taking advantage of the concentrated presence of experts and practitioners in one location. Most of these activities are organised under the auspices of the Commissions of ICA, and demonstrate the vibrancy of the international research community in cartography and its urge to meet whenever possible.
