?Learning to Read Maps - Practices of Map Use in Navigation Instruction“
The project includes both the standards and the diverse practices of sea-chart based navigation instruction. Nautical charts reveal political and economic interests. The project looks at how theoretical and practical knowledge on maritime spaces was increasingly standardized and professionalized. The main focus is the radical change represented by substituting a family-based practical navigation instruction with a system of schools in the German-speaking regions representing national ideas. Thus the seamen's use, handling and reception of maps becomes comprehensible.
