Usage of IT in the Process of Topographic Map Creation in MGI

Abstract

Usage of GIS in MGI is a standard in the production process of the geographic and cartographic information considering geospace and maps. This paper main scope is a review of the central geospatial database as a base for a technological process which main purpose is production of topographic maps. In the central geodatabase environment, MGI has developed its own technological production line, which is based on family of Microsoft Windows operating systems (standard desktop license and the server license). In some production phases, it is necessary to use additional specialized software to achieve rounded production process which is capable of dealing with such a complex task.

Automatic Road Extraction and Vectorization From Scanned Topographic Maps

“…The transition from analog to digital production process happened with the III edition. The production process of the IV edition of the map (hereinafter DTM25) was established in the period from 2012 to 2015 [2] is still ongoing, and although the initially established digital techniques have proven themselves well in their beginnings, there is a justified need to improve the process in order to achieve faster and higher production as concluded in [3].…”
