shall be
mentioned. They developed displays which are integrated horizontally on a 'table',
even with added interactivity where users can actually manipulate the table and
query the data by touching the planar or even relief surface.
Truly three-dimensional hard- and softcopy displays are coming up more and
more. They are penetrating various domains of everyday life and scientific dis-
ciplines. Cartographers have to be both: ''early users'' of these new technologies
and active contributors to technological developments. In addition, following the
''classical definition'' of cartography as a science, technology and art, manually
generated landscape models are experiencing a renaissance. Due to the human
attraction to ''true-3D''(see Buchroithner and Habermann
2010
) its application to
geodata visualisation certainly has a bright future.
