Mini Biography
Dr. D. R. Fraser Taylor is Chancellor’s Distinguished Research Professor of International Affairs, Geography and Environmental Studies, and Director of the Geomatics and Cartographic Research Centre at Carleton University, Ottawa, Canada. He also teaches in the Human Computer Interaction program and the African Studies program. In December 2021, he was appointed Officer of the Order of Canada. He is recipient of the Killam Prize for the Social Sciences, Canada’s highest academic honour (2014), which was accompanied by an award in the amount of $100,000; the Carl Mannerfelt Gold Award, the International Cartographic Association’s most prestigious acknowledgement and first presentation to a Canadian (2013); and the 3M/Royal Canadian Geographic Society Award for Environmental Innovation (2012). In 2008 he was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society of Canada. Dr. Taylor is active in geospatial information management research: he is a member of the United Nations Committee of Experts on Global Geospatial Information Management (UNGGIM), and serves as Canadian representative to the International Group on Earth Observation (GEO), which he was involved in establishing. He was President of the International Cartographic Association for two four-year terms, President of the International Union for Surveys and Mapping, and Chair the International Steering Committee for Global Mapping for a decade. He was Secretary Treasurer of the Canadian Association of African Studies for fifteen years and received an Honorary Life Membership in the Association for his services to African scholarship, and the Association also established the Fraser Taylor Book Prize given to the graduate student presenting the best paper at the annual conference.
He is recognized as one of the world’s leading cartographers, is a pioneer in the use of the computer in cartography and in the creation of digital atlases. He published the world’s first thematic computer atlas, the Computer Atlas of Ottawa Hull in 1969/70. In 1997, he introduced the concept of Cybercartography and established the Geomatic and Cartographic Research Centre at Carleton University, where the innovative Nunaliit digital atlas data management platform was created and developed by technologists, researchers and communities, including Indigenous, and supported by publication; it is the world’s leading research center on Cybercartography. He has a strong background in international development, supporting the use of geographical information processing, cartography and Cybercartography with local communities, governments and academic institutions across Canada, and in Africa, India, Denmark, Norway, China, Mexico and Brazil. He is presently engaged in research in Children’s Mapping. Dr. Taylor is widely published on both international development issues and cartography. He serves as General Editor of the Elsevier Series on Modern Cartography, and is on the Editorial Board of MDPI Academic Open Access Publication https://www.mdpi.com/ and Editorial Board Global World Prime trade magazine. He has published well over twenty books, and his research is presented in over 80 book chapters, scholarly journals, conference proceedings, industry publication and media/press reports. Dr. Taylor works extensively with Indigenous communities (Inuit and First Nations) in the creation of cybercartographic atlases dealing with traditional and local knowledge and documenting research into the practice. He has published widely in this field as well. His early books on Cybercartography are entitled Cybercartography: Theory and Practice (Elsevier 2005) and Developments in the Theory and Practice of Cybercartography: Applications and Indigenous Mapping (Elsevier 2014). Two new volumes Further Development in the Theory and Practice of Cybercartography: International Dimensions and Language Mapping and Cybercartography in a Reconciliation Community: Engaging Intersecting Perspectives were published In September and October of 2019. He introduced the Barbara Petchenik Children’s Map Competition of the International Cartographic Association in 1993, and today is actively engaged in research in children’s mapping as a methodology in child and youth care work practice in South Africa. He has supported and mentored undergraduate, graduate, postgraduate and visiting scholars, several who have gone on to distinguished careers, one as prime minister and others as ambassadors; and has supervised to completion over 200 graduate student theses, in English, French and Spanish, in International Affairs, Geography and Human Computer Interaction.

Research Interests
Professor Taylor’s main research interests lie in the application of geospatial information management to the analysis of key socio-economic problems in a national and international context and the presentation of the results in innovative new cartographic forms. His interests in cartography and international development issues are often inter-related. He has extensive field experience in developing nations, especially in Africa; this includes a six-year period as an education officer in rural Kenya where he completed his Ph.D. thesis on Rural Development in Muranga District. His research interests in this area include: development studies with special reference to Africa, China and Latin America; regional and rural development theory and practice, sustainable development and Indigenous development strategies; technology transfer in the field of geomatics; Canada’s international policies in overseas development assistance; and technology transfer. Professor Taylor introduced and continues to develop the new paradigm of Cybercartography. Current research is focussed on the use of cybercartography and the innovative NUNALIIT cybercartographic data management platform to produce a series of atlases on a wide variety of topics, especially in cooperation with Indigenous communities. This includes exploring a range of issues dealing with Traditional Knowledge, including legal and ethical considerations. He has led several research projects on Indigenous Residential Schools. His newest research is focussed on children’s cognitive story mapping and in children’s mapping as a methodology in child and youth care work practice and therapeutic art creation with partners in South Africa.
Current Research
Dr. Taylor has received over $20 million in research funding for this work from a variety of sources including SSHRC, CFI, CEC-NAPECA, INAC, the Ontario Research Fund, The Ontario Brain Institute, the Government of Nunavut, and a number of Northern Communities and Organizations including Inuit Tapiriit Kanatami, Kitikmeot Heritage Society, Clyde River, Sahtu and Gwich’in. This support is ongoing and a sampling of current funded projects includes:
