From clay plates maps to the first atlas of the world ; Cartographic maps as a cultural heritage

Long before people were able to write, maps have been used to visualize reality or phantasy. Their content influences people in how they see the world. It might even evoke strong emotions like aspirations or fears. Often this is influenced by social and political objectives. Determining the coordinates of an arbitrary position anywhere on the Earth´s surface was a utopia of many astronomers, geographers and cartographers for centuries. This journey, up to the present day, the century of satellite navigation, which brings results of meter accuracy, was long and difficult, accompanied by speculation, delusions and ingenious inventions. Cartographers played undoubtedly significant role in that area. The article features brief and concise history of appearance and challenges of topographic representations of geo-space data. The essential works of cartography-pioneers from the Old ages to Mercator (1512 - 1594) as well as the historical importance of his lifetime opus for the development of cartography will be presented in this paper.
