The process of cartographic communication and information transmission
is determined by cartographic models even in an interactive environment.
Those models belong to the interactive cartographic information systems,
which are increasingly demanded by users due to the fact, that
technologies and wire media offer more, faster, time independent access
to different geoinformation. But the last technology hits (SW, HW, data
format, program language, data way,...) give us the possibility to use
interactions, animations, multimedia sequences and virtual reality in
order to satisfy user's needs time and place independent.
What about cartographic quality of map information which are visualized
for different communication media? This, and other questions like: how
is it possible to apply the known theoretical concepts of map
generalization and map visualization to construct cartographic products
with implementations of new technology for internet and mobile wireless
information devices ? will be answered in the article.
