The future of cartography lies in its’ persisting ability to change and adapt itself to the requirements of the map-user. The cartographers’ ability to map land features of other planets, to the ocean bottom determines the future of cartography. Cartographers should also be capable of mapping anything from the Internet. The future of cartography is in the hands of students, who keep themselves informed about new technologies, including remote sensing methods, mapping software and image retrieval by satellites. People also make use of cartography in its’ analytical and presentation sense as they are employing software that embody cartographic practice and principles.
