Erwin Raisz
Definition
- Erwin Raisz played a key role in the professionalization of cartography within the discipline of geography, and deservedly he is ranked with early luminaries in the field such as John Paul Goode, Arthur Robinson, and Richard Harrison. His major contribution was in the area of landscape representation, and beginning at least a decade before World War II, he published literally thousands of maps, both large and small scale, depicting landforms throughout the world.
