The author first discusses the various ways of classifying cartographic generalization techniques, and then analyzes the course of the generalization process during the creation of a 1:50 000 topographic map on the basis of a 1:10 000 map. Using this analysis as a foundation, the author identifies, discusses and illustrates with examples the five types of cartographic generalization.

The factual and technical foundations of the concept for the 1:50 000 topographic map published in Poland between 1995 and 2002 by the Head Office of Geodesy and Cartography are discussed in this article. While discussing content and graphic design, the author gives particular attention to the novel way of representing built-up areas.

Landscape may be described as a part of space characterized by a certain physiognomy, which is a dynamic system subject to evolution. An important factor influencing the type and condition of the landscape is human activity which shapes or rebuilds its structure. Interesting results may be obtained on comparison of archival cartographic materials with contemporary studies and zoning plans. The Upper Silesian Coal Basin is a region with a clearly transformed landscape. The determinant of the geographical environment transformation here is the anthropogenic factor. The study area includes the upper part of the Kłodnica catchment (229.6 sq km). The study is a review, and its aim is to systematize data sources used in the research on the transformation of landscape structure of a heavily industrialized area. In the first half of the nineteenth century created the "Urmesstischblätter" in the scale of 1:25 000. Afterwards preparations began to take new topographic images of the country (the "Messtischblätter"). In the 1990s initiated the development of a new topographic map (in the scale of 1:10 000). Recent data source is for example the project CORINE Land Cover 2006. There are many of various sources of data on land cover. An important aspect is the proper selection of documents and maps, and their proper interpretation.

The article has two main goals. The first is to present the theoretical foundations in the field of cartographic sources editing, and the second is to discuss and present proposals for the model digital edition of old maps on the example of the Gaul/Raczyński map from the early 19th century. The most important questions concern relations between editing cartographic and written sources, diﬀerences between scientific and popular map editions, the role of digital tools in editing, diﬀerences and dependencies between map editing, cartography and historical map, and – finally – problems of sustainability of digital projects.

Artykuł ma dwa zasadnicze cele. Pierwszym jest przedstawienie dotychczasowego dorobku teoretycznego w zakresie edytorstwa źródeł kartograficznych, a drugim omówienie i prezentacja propozycji modelu cyfrowych edycji dawnych map na przykładzie mapy Gaula/Raczyńskiego z początku XIX w. Najistotniejsze pytania, na które autor poszukuje odpowiedzi, dotyczą m.in. relacji między edycją mapy a edycją tekstu, różnic między naukowymi a popularnonaukowymi edycjami map, roli narzędzi cyfrowych w edytorstwie, różnic i zależności pomiędzy edycją mapy a kartografią i mapą historyczną, a także – na zakończenie – problemów stabilności i utrzymania cyfrowych projektów.
