Original Abstract

Internet data in text, picture or multimedia form are one of many main resources for information obtaining. Way of presentation data predetermines interest of users. Geographical information systems are appropriate tools not only for data management, but also for data presentation, because geographical information systems use combined means of expression based on displaying various information above cartographic products. This paper deals with methods of visualization of linear features in digital cartographic products based on the theory of rough sets and degree of resolution. Presented method was designed with respect to maximal information integration into cartographic symbols and also to individual symbol elements resolution for all possible options of displaying data (user manipulation, zoom etc.). The theoretical basis described in this paper was verified within specific research project FAST-S-15-2710 “Geographic information system of Moravian Wine Paths”. Experimental results of this method is the visualization of linear features, cycling paths, in application containing inter alia digital cartographic product created in ArcGIS 10.1.
