Awards and Honors
2011 –
ICA Honorary Fellowship, International Cartographic Association (cartographers of international
reputation who have made special contribution to the ICA)
Prof. Michael P. Peterson has an outstanding career in
education research and service to the disciplines of cartography and geographic
information science. His record of teaching accomplishments and awards, his
excellent research particularly with topics of maps and the Internet, and his
significant record of service to his university, the discipline, and the ICA
are exemplary of an ICA honoree. Professor Peterson has served the ICA as an
exceptional Chair of the Commission on Maps and the Internet from 1999 to the
present. His accomplishments as Commission Chair include expanding the research
and educational frontier of Maps and the Internet, maintaining an exceptional
Website for the Commission, conducting numerous short courses and workshops for
the Commission in places around the world including Warsaw, Vienna, Madrid,
Tokyo, Karlsruhe, Guangzhou, and Denver, Knoxville, and Shepherdstown in the
United States. Publications by Professor Peterson under the auspices of the
Commission include Maps and the Internet,
a seminal book on the domain subject of the Commission.
