Teatime Talk - Mapping My World - Slovenia

From idealists to pragmatics: Development of cartography in Slovenia. Presented by Dr. Dusan Petrovic from the University of Ljubljana

During and even before the territory of today's Slovenia was regularly systematically mapped mainly by the military and now civilian geodetic services, the territory was shown on maps by many enthusiastic map makers, with different backgrounds, origins, reasons and stories. They left an exceptional cartographic heritage, which represents the basis for the current state of cartography in a small and diverse country at the junction of completely different geographical areas - the Alps, the Adriatic Sea and the Pannonian Plain.
