Description
Summary:VICISSITUDES OF THE TOPOGRAPHIC AND THEMATIC SERIES: A PICTURE OF THE CONTEMPORARY PORTUGUESE CARTOGRAPHY - This paper is concerned with the present state of the map series and with the production rhythm of the most relevent topographic and thematic map series in Portugal, at the scale 1:25,000and 1:50,000.
