NGA Supports Afghan Mapping Initiative

The Afghan Geodesy and Cartography Head Office (AGCHO) got a boost in its national mapping program when the NGA stepped in to offer additional resources. The partnership resulted in The Afghan Mapping Initiative which will essentially rebuild and modernize the national mapping program that was in place before the Taliban regime dismantled it.


off the beaten path

Compiled by Nora Parker, Senior Managing Editor

I thought the heart of rock and roll was in Cleveland, but apparently it's in the Twin Cities of Minnesota. Artist Kevin Cannon created this colorfully annotated and highly creative map showing locations where you can hear live music in Minneapolis and St. Paul. The original map appeared in the City Pages and was later put on the publication's website. You can read Cannon's detailed explanation of how he put the map together, which I found interesting.
