Development of Topographic Map Production in the Scale of 1:25 000 in Croatia in the Period Between 1990 and 2010

Summary: This work covers the area of topography in the Republic of Croatia during the last 20 years, i.e. the period between 1990 and 2010. Since the topographic map in the scale of 1:25 000 (TK25) was not produced in Croatia before the country became independent, neither did the Croatian geodetic operative participate in it. Therefore, in the early 1990s, everything had to start from the beginning. A significant contribution to the establishment of the topographic development concept in Croatia was made by the professors from the Geodetic Faculty of the University of Zagreb, Prof. Paško Lovrić, Ph.D. (deceased) and Prof. Emeritus Nedjeljko Frančula. The concept that they established in the study entitled Official Topographic and Cartographic Information System – Design Project was entirely adopted and implemented. Between 1996 and 2009, the State Geodetic Administration contracted the development of all TK25 sheets for the entire territory of the Republic of Croatia, and by the end of 2010, all of the sheets became official and were put in use.
