Abstract

Development of cartography at the University is in close relation with social and economic development of Serbia. Due to historical circumstances - liberation wars and territorial federation, cartography was originally based on map making, i.e. the applied cartography within military institutions, and later at the university. During last twenty years of XX century, the cartography has had its intense development due to its interactivity and possibility to process the spatial data by improving and applying of the computers. The main problem in cartography development is that there are no schools or studies for education of the cartographers. The skills are acquired in the course of geography or geodesy studies. At the Faculty for Geography there has been established the Department for Cartography, a Laboratory for cartography and post-graduate studies in Geographic cartography. Master and doctorate studies are organized as a consequence of the reforms. There is a great difference in comprehension of cartography in the past times and nowadays.
