<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Many graduate theses and grant proposals have strong literature review sections that never see the light, and of course the research landscape constantly changes and many
of us are keen to catch up based on reviews. We hope that some of that intellectual effort makes it to the public through this initiative. Feel free to spread the word.</span></p>

<p><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The ICA Commissions on Visual Analytics, Cognitive Issues in Geographic Visualization, and User Experience (UX) invite paper submissions for a special focus issue of the International
Journal of Cartography (https://www.tandfonline.com/toc/tica20/current). The theme for this special issue centers on the State of the Art & Science in Cartography, with the aim of synthesizing literature in emerging areas of Cartography and especially at its
intersections with other domains. This is a special issue focusing on literature reviews, i.e., we are not targeting empirical research results. Papers submitted for this special issue should focus on reviewing and synthesizing recent literature in an area
of cartographic research and geospatial sciences. Submissions should emphasize the state of the art in a given thematic area, and culminate by identifying key themes, challenges, or opportunities, and critical reviews are welcome. We will accommodate both
systematic and narrative reviews. We do not target original research results, unless they are in support of demonstrating claims made in the review.</span><br>
