Course content
The purpose of the discipline is to provide students with basic knowledge of the theory of cartography as a component of cartography, taking into account modern approaches to understanding the peculiarities of the formation of a cartographic image and its properties; familiarization with the information base of map filling, achievements of computer technologies, which open up new possibilities in the creation and application of cartographic works. The discipline is devoted to the theory of cartography, the study and development of methods and technologies of laboratory map creation, the theory of cartographic projections, issues of scientific and technical editing of cartographic works. Considers the theoretical foundations, subject, methods and technology of creation and application of cartographic works. The discipline is closely related to the following cartographic disciplines: cartographic theory, mathematical cartography, geodesy, topography, photogrammetry and land surveying, digital cartography and geoinformatics, cartographic design and map publishing technology. Reveals the issue of geographical features of cartographic generalization on maps, methods of mapping objects and phenomena, cartographic information and state standards, as well as standardization of terms and definitions, cartographic toponymy. Reveals the features of designing and compiling maps, preparing them for publication and replication. Application of cartographic works in scientific and practical literature. The retrospective development of the history of cartography is considered.

Assessment methods and criteria
Forms and organization of assessment: -- current (semester) assessment (practical papers (minimum grade 24, maximum 40; control papers (6-10); independent work (5-10)); – final (final) assessment in the form of an exam (assessment for theoretical knowledge (minimum 12, maximum 20 points); assessment for the practical part (13-20).
