Digitizing of old maps and on-line tools for using them
Original language description
Old maps are one of the most important historical sources. Today's modern methods of digitization for on-line access allow much more than just making copies of old maps for viewing. Is it possible to fully exploit the potential of old maps as cartographic works with all of their specific characteristics. On the first place shall be made available common tools for measuring distances, directions, areas etc. Next thanks to georeferencing of a digitized images of old maps followed by layering associated with opacity can be effectively compared the contents of the different maps between themselves. For these purposes are important on-line tools for georeferencing of raster images of old maps and for display of georeferenced maps in 3D view. On-line tools of new generation can do also automatized processing of georeferenced raster images of digitized old maps. These are e.g. searching for occurrences of map symbols, classification of digitized old maps, automatized extracting of texts etc. In addition to the above, this contribution also deals with the requirements for proper digitization of old maps.
