The paper represents an introduction to study of the issues and constitutes a part of a comprehensive research on the set of engravings which, besides the historical perspective, brings a geodetic-cartographic view of these works. It devotes minutely tothe fields that could be processed using methods of digital cartography and GIS. These include e.g. tracking of identical points between the engravings and the then or contemporary map sources, the evaluation of scale number or numbers, modelling the depicted situation over a digital terrain model and the resulting visualization of visibility options from particular elevated locations in the vicinity of the displayed area.
