Geopolitical conditions of development cartography in safety communications
Journal Title: Security and Defence Quarterly - Year 2015, Vol 7, Issue 2
Abstract
In this paper, the development of cartography is synthetically presented in a historical context, from the first ideas on the planet to the modern methods of data collection, processing and display of digital media. In the last section, three examples of geoportals areas are given to present this technique’s possibilities in the second decade of the twenty-first century. A non-random sample of geoportals was chosen because they represent transportation, an important and furiously growing field of modern civilisation. The examples of planetary space namely in the area of land, sea and air are correctly presented.
