Prices for Cartographic Products

Abstract

The principles applied in the complete revision of wholesale prices for map products and map industry services which become effective on January I , 1990 are examined. The entire way in which map industry business is to be conducted is undergoing revision, with many of the changes anticipated and in progress being described. Contractual arrangements will be used much more frequently than in the past and the relevant types of products and services are enumerated. Quality control and cooperation with foreign mapping organizations are to undergo radical changes as well. Translated by Edward Torrey, Alexandria, VA 22308 from: Geodeziya i kartograjiya, 1989.
