TThe article describes the design of a methodology for creating special cartographic symbols for thematic maps. Three main aspects were highlighted in the proposal: 1. readability of symbols when displayed under different scales; 2. maximum possible a lot of information contained in the symbol; and 3. respecting of cartographic rules. After a series of experiments, it was found that the optimal format for representing point symbols is the EMF vector format. The methodology was developed for 2 classes of cartographic symbols: point and line symbols. Line symbols have been developed to transform them from ArcGIS desktop to ArcGIS Online. The authors have created a series of symbols for thematic maps representing the Moravian Wine Cycle Trails in ArcGIS Online. In case of point features were created for categories: winery, refreshments, services, accommodation, points of interest, institutions. In the line features category were created symbols primarily for communications. From these symbols it is possible to determine the type of communication, the type of surface and its difficulty in terms of cycling. Different categories (difficulty, type of surface, etc.) can be combined. The final application is available on www.
