Collaboration

Expert work, scientific and R&D projects

The Division of Cartography is about research, development and expertise within the scope of:

  • designing innovative models of spatial databases and geographic information systems (GIS)
  • devising the map production technology (digital cartographic systems) on the basis of spatial databases
  • developing models of topographic databases
  • devising and implementing geoportals (geographic or thematic)
  • geographic information generalization
  • using 3D models of cities to create “smart city” systems
  • using gamification in the geoparticipation process
  • integrating BIM and GIS systems and models
  • the methodology of modeling and cartographic representation in localization and navigation applications
  • navigation inside buildings
  • aerial cartography
  • using interpolation methods to create numerical models of the terrain sculpture and statistical surfaces
  • the methodology of designing spatial databases for the navigation and localization systems
  • the methodology of obtaining spatial data by means of mobile tools and applications
  • neocartography, social cartography
  • innovative methods of GIS data geovisualization, e.g. using AR/VR technologies
  • using the methodology of cartography in mobile marketing
  • designing and implementing complex geographical analyses
  • exploratory spatial data analysis (spatial data mining)
  • using the methodology of spatial statistics and geostatistics to create decision models
  • using Design Thinking methodology to create innovative products and geoinformation services
