Sublimation of graphication and geovisualization using the cartographic method

Abstract

The map is the basic tool of interactive, dynamic geospatial research. The complex structure of geodata is necessary to be graphically interpreted with the help of cartographical presentation (locational and attributional). The synergy of cartographic visualization, generalization and cartographic methods enables efficient implementation of geosystem analysis. Geovisualization includes a range of activities according to research, systematization, classification and typification, analysis and synthesis, comparison, presentation to the interpretation of occurrences and processes in geospace. The cartographic translation is a complex process of visualization of geo-data, based on the scientific procedures of generalizing the content of the map using the cartographic method. The gnoseological sense of the cartographic method is also the primary goal of geovisualization: - spatial definition of the phenomenon, - time correlation of the phenomenon and processes of actual reality and their evolution, and - essential definition of the phenomenon and processes of actual reality. The cognitive sense of cartographic visualization is primarily achieved through the procedures of cartographic generalizations. Digital technology provides great opportunities for modern cartographic visualization. Besides realistic, virtual maps are of great importance too. Visual dynamic representations of geo-data (interactive visualization of spatial databases) and the creation of detailed 3D and 4D models are continually increasing. Digital data processing enables new dimensions of data analysis, and the process implies generalizing data from the source database while respecting different geo-data attributes, as well as adequate graphical solutions in displaying a generalizable data set.
