The subject is focused on the implementation of advanced cartographic tasks on the Internet. All tasks are based on basic cartographic principles. Selected cartographic topics are presented with an emphasis on the connection of geographic and computer cartography with the Internet environment. As part of the exercises, students practically master selected technologies. The course includes seminars where students present their independent works leading to the independent compilation of a concept of a web map or a map portal. The subject is focused on mastering advanced technologies and map libraries. Completion of the subject is done by practical verification of skills with the acquired systems. Syllabus: - Data formats -- Raster tiles -- Vector tiles - CloudGIS -- MapBox Studio -- Carto -- Unfolded + Placemark -- GISCloud API solution -- Google Maps API -- Mapy.cz API Open source libraries -- OpenLayers -- MapLibre -- Geoserver + Leaflet

Learning outcomes
|
The aim of the course is to practically familiarize students with the design, creation and implementation of advanced web maps. As part of the exercise, students master the creation of a map output in individual steps using selected JavaScript libraries (MapBox, MapLibre, Google Maps API), including the deployment of the necessary tools and functionality. The course includes seminars where students present their independent work leading to the independent compilation of a web map concept. Completion of the subject is done by practical verification of skills with the acquired systems.
The subject aimed at acquiring knowledge of web cartography. Define the main terms and procedures, describe the main approaches, demonstrate theoretical knowledge for solving web cartography problems.
