Keynote Speakers



Cynthia A. Brewer
Professor of Geography and IST, Pennsylvania State University

Communicating Map Patterns Using Perceptual Dimensions of Color

The keynote presents color use for cartographic communication and an evolution to map design using geographic information (GIS) system tools. ColorBrewer.org offers specifications for sequential, diverging, and qualitative schemes that match the perceptual dimensions of color with conceptual structures in geographic data. These designs help map readers understand the patterns in mapped distributions.



Mark A. Fairchild
Distinguished Professor, Rochester Institute of Technology

Seeking Improvements in Color Specification

Mark will discuss the last several decades of advances in techniques for describing and specifying the appearance of colors while providing some proposed concepts for putting all those pieces together for future systems of colorimetry.




Dimitris Mylonas
Associate Professor, Northeastern University London

Augmenting Color Communication Within & Across Languages

Ongoing research on facilitating color communication within and across languages using online, field, laboratory and computational experimental methodologies.
