| Abstract: |
Rock representation in maps belongs to the traditional problems in classical cartography. There is a gap in this field in digital cartography. Possibilities for rock representations using digital cartography means mainly in large- and middle-scaled maps are discussed in this article. Several ways to represent the rock formations on contemporary digital maps are described together with their limitations and relation to techniques used in the classical cartography. Problem is also seen from other points of view: availability of geographical data in the Czech Republic, possibilities for automatic processing and aesthetics and user-friendliness. |
