Production of topographic map at scale 1:50000 in the environment of geodatabase

Abstract

Technological trends in the field of cartography and GIS require a different concept in the production of maps from classic cartographic publishing. The paper describes the technological procedure for the creating of a topographic map at scale of 1:50 000 in the geodata environment and based on it a cartographic-reproduction preparation for printing. At the beginning of the work, the criteria are analyzed for choosing the basic scale as initial (fundamental) scale in the system of topographic maps. After that, technical and technological solutions are described, from the modeling of map data to creating of the database. Also, procedures of cartographic reproduction preparation and printing of topographic maps are described. In the practical part of the work tools and softwares were used: ArcGIS, MicroStation and PS/M.

Tehnološki trendovi na polju kartografije i GIS, zahtijevaju drugačiji koncept u produkciji karata od klasičnog kartografskog izdavaštva. U radu se opisuje tehnološki postupak izrade topografske karte razmjere 1:50 000 u okruženju geobaze podataka i na osnovu nje kartografsko-reprodukcijska priprema za štampu. Na početku rada, analiziraju se kriterijumi izbora osnovne razmjere kao početne (fundamentalne) razmjere u sistemu topografskih karata. Nakon toga, opisuju se tehničko-tehnološka rješenja od modelovanja kartografskih podataka do formiranja baze. Takođe, opisuju se postupci kartografskoreprodukcijske pripreme i štampa topografskih karata. U praktičnom dijelu rada korišćeni su alati i softverska okruženja: ArcGIS, MicroStation i PS/M.
