The atlas of Wenchuan Earthquake disaster was published in the beginning of 2009. It provides a comprehensive presentation of mechanism governing the devastating quake, the major disaster casued, the emgency response, and the reconstruction plan. Advanced spatio-temporal represention techniques were used integratedly in the design and production of the atlas, such as remotely sensed images, three dimensional digital models, and specific symbols for earthquake disaster. The atlas is considered as a fundemantal material and scientific refrence for the study of natural catastrophes, disaster recovery, and public awareness of natural disaters. This paper gives a brief introduction of the design concept of the atlas and its relevant methodology, major contents,spatial-temporal representation techniques, as well as the organizational strategy.
