When I think about Collaborative Cartography I think about a collection of ideas to support one main focus. For example, our combined efforts and thoughts on the atlas pages is a great example of Collaborative Cartography. I like how we can post our own thoughts and ideas and people will comment back on how it can be made better or something that is a really good idea. This is sort of like writing a paper and editing that paper using a lot of people to improve it. Over the course of the semester we have participated in an ongoing assignment on our blog sites. This also is a collection of ideas and it to offers a great resource to find out more about others ideas in various cartographic topics. All of this has helped improve the thought process of everyone and it was cool to see others ideas that i did not think about. Basically with collaborative cartography you are tackling the problem from all angles and that helps delete discrepancies.
