pocketMMaps is software for creating PocketMod-style books for a map image too large to fit on a single page. Maps are generated dynamically and then sliced in to (PocketMod) page-sized pieces and re-arranged on multiple sheets of paper so that when printed and folded you get a little book with the map laid out in handy 2-page spreads. Just like the maps you see in the back of travel guides. It may seem as though I have an obsession with destroying the travel book industry but I don't, really. It's just that their maps suck and their books are too big to fit in my back pocket.

PocketMaps - paper maps of dynamic data :: mapufacture blog
The result are PocketMaps. Just like normal PocketMods, but each item in a map or KML file show up as page with a marker and map showing the location. If the place has a photo from a sharing site like Flickr then the image will be brought in as well. You can even optionally have simple map of the place, or include overview, or zoomed out, maps of the area to help you find where it is in a large city.

Berner, Robert A. (1935- ): World of Earth Science
Robert A. Berner's research in sedimentary geochemistry led to the application of mathematical models to describe the physical, chemical, and biological changes that occur in ocean sediment. Berner, a professor of geology and geophysics at Yale University, also developed a theoretical approach to explain larger geochemical cycles, which led to the creation of a model for assessing atmospheric carbon dioxide levels and the greenhouse effect over geological time. A prolific researcher, Berner has written many scientific journal articles and is one of the most frequently quoted earth scientists in the Science Citation Index.

184 - A Belgocentric Map of Europe « strange maps
