Many designers and mapmakers prefer to work in graphics software, such as Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop, when completing rich graphics such as illustrative maps, plans, and charts. This session will introduce how you can use Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop for mapping. Working in conjunction with GIS software, we will go work with some simple data, then outline the workflow to properly get your data into Adobe so you can edit it and add graphic flair, then show some Adobe cartography tricks. Brought to you by DUSPviz.
