Frequently Asked Questions

When considering hiring a cartographer for a custom map design job there is one BIG question to consider: Will this map be seen by my customers, clients, or visitors?
If the answer is yes, then you might want to hire a cartographer. Just like good graphic design, map design influences how people view a business, park, or campaign. Poorly designed maps are confusing, lower user confidence, and at worst can be dangerous. At McNaught Design we specialize in making maps that people WANT to look at!
We make maps of all kinds! Our custom cartography designs are tailored to meet your specific industry, branding, and project. Need a hiking trail map for a park refresh? No problem, we make topographic maps and shaded relief maps perfect of your site. Or maybe you are looking for a fun tourism map to highlight attractions? We have you covered. It is all based on your needs.
Geographic Information Systems or GIS for short is a term that refers to many different spatial mapping softwares. While cartography has been around since humans first began to draw, GIS is a relatively new technology. Now days, GIS is the backbone for spatial data and most cartography project begin with some kind of GIS mapping.
Similar to any design service, custom cartography design prices vary by the scope of the project, the complexity, and use case.
For example, a map of a private garden may cost less than a map of a commercial downtown with hundreds of business, attractions, and parks. Regardless of the project, we are here to work through the map design process step by step. Contact us below for a free quote.
