 The Web Tourist Atlases Assist the Dissemination of Spatial Data Track: Cartography and Map Production Author(s): Luz Angela Rocha Salamanca The tourism capability of Colombia is enormous but in some cases most of the places for tourism are not recognized world wide because of the lack of data and poor dissemination of useful information to tourists. Although maps can play an important role in providing information on the Web to tourists, this paper relates the advances of the research project. Its main purpose is to show the importance of the use of spatial data for dissemination of tourist information on the web. The main goal of this project is to make a web atlas of the Archipelago of San Andres, Providencia and Santa Catalina that contribute to the increase of visitors to the islands, using a methodology that integrates tools like Geographic Information Systems and Information technology.
