Geomedia Attributes for Perspective Visualization of Relief for Historical Non-Cartometric Water-Colored Topographic Maps

The selection of appropriative geomedia attributes for constructing natural and suggestive perspective visualizations historical non-cartometric manuscript topographic works is investigated, to enable an intuitive perception relief landforms. main objective the study demonstrate parameters representing third dimension in watercolor maps from eighteenth century, using cartographic rules geoinformation operations transforming graphic means expression. following methods were used: choice representative map fragments with specific painterly expression; analysis forms on modern maps; rectification; vectorization contour lines, transformation a GRID model; use parameter variations: elevation rise, azimuth altitude, contrast illumination; creation final bird’s-eye-view visualization, appropriate parameters. It found that visualization water-colored image 3D model can be selected turn. However, what matters maintaining their complementarity. proposed three work well creating general static landscapes’ relief.
