Abstract
The article proposes a new development concept of topographic mapping in Ukraine. It is based on the implementation of a new system model that responds to the geoinformation approach to topographic mapping in the development of national geospatial data infrastructure (NSDI) and provides the creation of geospatial data sets in the form of databases and knowledge bases based on existing standards and specifications: series of international standards ISO 19100 “Geographic information/Geomatics”, Open Geospatial Consortium (OGS), INSPIRE, State Standards of Ukraine (DSTU), Complex of Standards Organization of Ukraine (SOU) “Topographic database”. It provides a high intellectual level of core reference and profile geospatial data, which is capable to provide geoinformation analysis and modeling in modern GIS. In addition, the implementation the infrastructure approach to topographic production and the creation and development of a permanent topographic monitoring system will ensure the publication of geospatial data in real time, almost simultaneously with changes in the terrain, which guarantees the maintenance of a single topographic basis and, accordingly, core reference datasets for NSDI.

Highlights
The powerful system of topographic mapping of the terrain was created in the Soviet Union as part of the mapping production infrastructure
The architecture of the main state topographic map (Fig. 3), which corresponds to the geoinformation approach to topographic mapping under the conditions of development of the national infrastructure of geospatial data, can be described as follows: 1. We have a terrain (Т) with a constantly changing and time-varying geospatial features – fTT; 2
It has been found that the mapping approach to the creation of digital topographic maps no longer satisfies the modern industries and society, since in this approach the digital map is a “slice of the terrain” for a certain period of time and does not take into account the changes of the terrain, does not allow for data integration, collected from different sources for map updating and digital map production occurs in a specific geoinformation systems (GIS) environment, which does not ensure the interoperability of geospatial data collected in other GIS, causing problems with creating, updating, exchange and sharing of information between producers and users
Summary
The powerful system of topographic mapping of the terrain was created in the Soviet Union as part of the mapping production infrastructure. Besides in the Soviet Union the consistency was introduced for the main content elements between adjacent scale sheets, where topographic maps of the scale 1: 25 000 was based on the scale of 1:10 000, maps of 1:50 000 was based on sheets 1:25 000 and so on. The quality of these maps, the accuracy, detail, information and clarity were so high that they made it a world reference sample [6]. The “Soviet” stage of topographic mapping development ended with the digital mapping development and the first use of geoinformation systems
