Transitions in Cartography at the USDA-NRCS National Cartography and Geospatial Center Paper Text

J. Steven Nechero

The National Cartography and Geospatial Center (NCG) has changed from production and manual cartography to research and development and training for digital technologies. NCG provides a wide variety of map products and services for all areas administered by the NRCS and is a focal point of modern mapping, remote sensing, and Global Positioning System (GPS) technologies. This paper highlights the changes from manual production of maps to digital cartographic solutions and data delivery.
