This paper discusses the challenges to a wider access to archival cartographic materials. The aim of the study is to present and evaluate the preparation of historical maps for presentation in geoportals. The authors use the example of two maps from the early twentieth century, without information on the spatial relations, to trace the course of their processing into a form that allows them to be published in spatial data structures. The descriptions of subsequent stages include theoretical and practical aspects of the procedure. Particular attention was paid to the factors affecting the accuracy of spatial fit that affects the ability to use them further.

Artykuł odnosi się do trudności w szerokim dostępie do archiwalnych materiałów kartograficznych. Celem opracowania jest przedstawienie i ocena przygotowania map historycznych do prezentacji w geoportalu. Autorzy na przykładzie dwóch map z początku XX wieku, nieposiadających informacji o odniesieniu przestrzennym, prześledzili proces ich przetworzenia do postaci umożliwiającej udostępnienie w strukturach danych przestrzennych. W opisie kolejnych etapów uwzględniono aspekty teoretyczne, jak i praktyczne postępowania. Szczególną uwagę zwrócono na czynniki wpływające na dokładność wpasowania przestrzennego rzutującego na możliwości dalszego ich wykorzystania.

On the basis of Art. 96, par. 1 of the Law of 23 July 2003 on the protection and care of monuments, the Minister of Culture and National Heritage entrusted the performance of the public task of the construction of the spatial information infrastructure to the director of the National Heritage Board of Poland (NHBP). The creation of the geospatial database of historical monuments was designated as a statutory duty of the Board. Since 2010 NHBP has also functioned as the Competence Centre in the field of digitalisation of historical monuments and museum exhibits. The task of NHBP’s Centre of Competence is to set and promote standards in terms of the digitalisation of historical monuments and museum exhibits and tasks relating to the implementation of the INSPIRE directive. The performance of these tasks began very late. In the middle of 2010, a new department – the Department of Digitalisation of Historical Monuments and Museum Exhibits – was established, its team consisting of specialists in cartography, photogrammetry and IT. Its organisation was completed in November 2010. The first task of the team was to identify and diagnose the nature of data collected by NHBP. In accordance with the schedule of implementation of the INSPIRE directive, metadata designed for particular data sets were published on NHBP’s website on 3 December 2010. Irrespective of work on metadata of data sets and services, work aimed at creating a model of data concerning non-movable and archaeological monuments was completed. Access to data will be provided via central geoportal and in the future it will be profiled due to the function of the user in the system. According to the plan, the central geoportal of NHBP was launched on 9 November 2011. At the beginning of the second quarter of 2012, the launching of a website integrating geoportal map services with the presentation of multimedia contents is planned as a part of the CARARE project. In the first year of existence of the department (from October 2010 till December 2011) all intended goals were achieved and the deadlines set in the INSPIRE calendar were met. Many tenders supporting the work of the department were concluded, and a series of training courses was organised, which contributed significantly to the raising of awareness of specialists in the protection of historical monuments with regard to GIS, operation of GPS devices and the INSPIRE directive. Employees of the digitalisation department were trained in the field of IT. It must be stressed that the most difficult stage of works, i.e. the processing of the register to the digital and geospatial form, is still in its initial phase. The deadline for those works is the first quarter of 2013.
