A tematikus térképészet néhany elméleti és gyakorlati kérdése. (Some theoretical and practical issues of thematic cartography)
Since 1969 the establishment of the uniform Hungarian mapping system has been under way. Author argues for its supplementation with a uniform system for thematic mapping required by users of mapped data. The perspectives of the computer open up new
opportunities for using thematic maps as tools for research. (DLO).
Geological mapping using Landsat Thematic Mapper imagery in Almeria Province, South-east Spain in Special issue : Advances in geological remote sensing.
On the basis of a single scattering approach for atmospheric correction, an algorithm was developed to correct for the influences of aerosols, air molecules and atmospheric trace gases on Thematic Mapper measurements above land surfaces using
Producing of thematic maps is usually combined with three different stages : scientific stage, scientific-artistic stage, and technological stage, therefore on various stages several types of authors are involved. Only good knowledge about
these stages enables accurate evaluation of scientistic and esthetic worth of thematic maps and determination of autorship of thematical maps. Copyright of each type of the authors of thematical maps in Slovenia is secured on different ways by Slovene copyright

The maps are classified into general geographical and thematic maps. The general geographical maps can be topographic or chorographic maps, which show objects that help orientation. The thematic maps are made with another objective: to represent
the spatial distribution of natural and social phenomena including their characteristics, structure and functions. This explains why the makers of thematic maps have always used various methods to visualize their topic. This paper gives an overview
of the development of the representation methods of thematic map making. - (AM)
The development of thematic maps in Bavaria up to the year 1900
Bavaria ; Eighteenth Century ; Germany ; History of cartography ; Nineteenth Century ; Seventeenth Century ; Sixteenth Century ; Thematic mapping
Bavaria is a geographically and historically homogenous country was ideal for development of thematic mapping. The oldest maps of Bavaria were published just in XVIth century. The important tradition of Central European roads map started
in this time too. The many other thematic maps were developed in 18th and especially in 19th century. Four centuries of experience represent actually a fixed part of cartography, permitting cartography depiction of all features. - (MS)
