A map to all corners of the world, and-if they're right-the next. A year later, what happened in the caves at Eden's edge still haunts Dexter and Daphna's nightmares: falling through the darkness, the stench, the flapping wings-that maniacal laughter. Back in Portland, they've built a new life with their new mother, but now, the night before they were officially to open a new chapter in their lives, they learn the awful truth: When they came back from those dreadful caves, something came with them-something older than time and capable of unleashing a devastating plague. Once again, the twins are on the run, not only from the terrifying creature, but also from the authorities who think Dex and Daphna have answers-and from other powerful interests who want to know what information they possess. Their newest secret, a book of miraculous maps, is their best hope of survival. If they can solve its mysteries, it might lead them beyond their nightmares-and perhaps even beyond their wildest dreams.

This book examines a new trend affecting cartography and geographic information science. Presenting the work of over 30 authors from 16 different countries, the book provides an overview of current research in the new area of Internet Cartography. Chapters deal with the growth of this form of map distribution, uses in education, privacy issues, and technical aspects from the point of view of the map provider - including Internet protocols such as XML and SVG. Many see the Internet as a revolution for cartography. Previously tied to the medium of paper and expensive large-format color print technology, maps had a limited distribution and use. The Internet made it possible to not only distribute maps to a much larger audience but also to incorporate interaction and animation in the display. Maps have also become timelier with some maps of traffic and weather being updated every few minutes. In addition, it is now possible to access maps from servers throughout the world. Finally, the Internet has made historic maps available for viewing to the public that were previously only available in map libraries with limited access. * Provides comprehensive coverage of maps and the internet * Delivers a global perspective * Combines theoretical and practical aspects
