WINNER

Helen C. Stirling
Moray Health Walks
These were produced as part of a health initiative developed by Moray Council and NHS Grampian. A clear well designed and executed set of maps that are ideal for the target non-map user. The small symbol set uses symbols that are easy to understand and should reduce ‘map phobia’, the choice of colours and the limited colour palette adds to the overall clarity. It was particularly interesting to see that as each walking map stands on its own they can be downloaded individually from the Council website.
Unfortunately Helen couldn't attend in person and asked The BCS President Mary Spence MBE to receive on her behalf.

Collins Geo
2009 Fold out road atlas of Britain
The compact format, clear presentation, comprehensive detail and well determined name placement combined with a good balance of colours meant that this entry was a firm favourite with the judges. They felt that it would be a very useful and usable product.

Global Mapping
The Dynamic World
This is an educational world map depicting the natural phenomena that shape our planet. The judges liked the currency and relevance of the map and found it informative and the overall appearance and use of colour is pleasing to the eye.

A&Z Cartography
Fishing Map of the Rackeve Branch of the Danube
The judges felt it used a good balance of colours and would provide the Fishing Association members with a product that would be useful to the experienced fisherman whilst providing excellent background detail for the ‘fishing-tourist’.
Unfortunately it was not possible for a representative from A&Z Cartography to attend the evening and asked BCS President Mary Spence MBE to receive the certificate on their behalf.
