David A. Woodward, a British-born geographer, editor and historian of mapmaking who helped create an encyclopedic series of books re-examining the place of mapmaking in world history, died last Wednesday at his home in Madison, Wis., where he taught at the University of Wisconsin for two decades. He was 61. At his death, Dr. Woodward had been editing the multivolume History of Cartography Project, an effort begun at the university in 1981. (NYT)
