Short Description of your Research or Creative Project (700 characters or less)

This project aims to show two different styles of Cartography to represent the same geographic area, Tibet. The first map is paper map, a mapping project of Tibet and of Tibetan toponyms. The paper map focuses on the region rather than the geopolitics of the region and displays toponyms that reflect Tibetan culture. The second map uses a web based interactive platform to display the various routes that HSU students have taken between 2000 and 2014, while conducting research in Tibet. The web map hopes to consolidate the previous field studies conducted, into an interactive database for future research to reference.
