| Abstract [eng] |
The problem in cartography is that the stylistic analize of electronic maps is not done until now. The map style playes an important role in the comunication, informativeness, aesthetics of the map. The stylistics of the digital maps has some disadventiges. The purpose of this work is the perfectation of the aesthetical view of the electronic maps. For this purpose the definition of the map style was developed, the complex structure of the map style was showed, the styles of electronic maps were classified and the methodical recommendations for the creation of style of electronic maps were created. It is recommended to define the concept of the style as it is a specific selection and combination of the means of the artistic expression, that depend on author‘s personal characteristics; the contents, purpose and character of the map itself; the map users’ demands; media. The general style of electronic maps distinguish themselves for „invisible” informative and precise expression (the information is laid „behind the map“ and is reached due to the interactive ability), vivacious emotion impact, screen fitting compositions. All the styles of electronic maps can be classified as follows: technological/deteminative, business-like, lyric, playful, extravagant. The image defects in scaned maps, the lack of unity of style, reference points and records in the map view, overdone computer effects - these are the most frequent mistakes, that are done in the stylistics of digital cartography. |
