Cyfrowe edycje map dawnych: perspektywy i ograniczenia na przykładzie mapy Gaula/Raczyńskiego (1807–1812)
Digital editions of the old maps: prospects and limitations on the example of the Gaul/Raczyński map (1807–1812)

Summary/Abstract: The article has two main goals. The first is to present the theoretical foundations in the field of cartographic sources editing, and the second is to discuss and present proposals for the model digital edition of old maps on the example of the Gaul/Raczyński map from the early 19th century. The most important questions concern relations between editing cartographic and written sources, differences between scientific and popular map editions, the role of digital tools in editing, differences and dependencies between map editing, cartography and historical map, and – finally – problems of sustainability of digital projects.
