                  Lesson 3
                                              TECHNOLOGICAL CHANGES

                         I Read and translate the following text:

                         In cartography, technology has continually changed in order to meet the demands of
                  new generations of mapmakers and map users. The first maps were manually constructed with
                  brushes and parchment and therefore varied in quality and were limited in distribution. The
                  advent of magnetic devices, such as the compass and much later magnetic storage devices,
                  allowed for the creation of far  more accurate maps and the ability to store and manipulate
                  them digitally.
                         Advances  in  mechanical  devices  such  as  the  printing  press,  quadrant  and  vernier
                  allowed for the mass production of maps and the ability to make accurate reproductions from
                  more accurate data. Optical technology, such as the telescope, sextant and other devices that
                  use  telescopes,  allowed  for  accurate  surveying  of  land  and  the  ability  of  mapmakers  and
                  navigators to find their latitude by measuring angles to the North Star at night or the sun at
                  noon.
                         Advances in photochemical technology, such as the lithographic and photochemical
                  processes, have allowed for the creation of maps that have fine details, do not distort in shape
                  and  resist  moisture  and  wear.  This  also  eliminated  the  need  for  engraving  which  further
                  shortened the time it takes to make and reproduce maps.
                         In the late 20th century and early 21st century advances in electronic technology led to
                  a new revolution in cartography. Specifically, computer hardware devices such as computer
                  screens, plotters, printers, scanners and analytic stereo plotters along with visualization, image
                  processing, spatial analysis and database software, have democratized and greatly expanded
                  the making of maps. The ability to superimpose spatially located variables onto existing maps
                  created new uses for maps and new industries to explore and exploit these potentials.
