ICA is proud of having a number of affiliate members. Affiliate membership can be granted to organizations, institutions or companies wishing to support the mission and activities of the International Cartographic Association.
Affiliate members are contributing to the work of ICA in many ways. They participate in commission and working group activities, they participate and exhibit in International Cartographic Conferences, they sponsor and contribute to conferences, workshops, symposia and publications, and they are, first of all,
partners in disseminating information about the importance and progress in cartography.
Given the fact that I have personally found discussions and contributions of the ICA affiliate members often very rewarding I feel obliged to use this first blog entry of 2013 to highlight the importance and role of the ICA affiliate members by thanking them for their ongoing commitment and name all of them here:
