                           FIFTH TECHNICAL WORKSHOP
                                      ON
                        AUTOMATED CADASDRAL CARTOGRAPHY
              (Madrid, Spain, from April 27th to May 29th, 1992)




            Succesful implantation of GISs/LISs in  local  governments
         in  Spain  is  barred  by  lack  of  professionals with sound
         knowledge of such systems. For this reason, Spanish  cadastre
         (Centro de Gestion Catastral y Cooperacion Tributaria, CGCCT)
         and  Universidad  Autonoma  de  Madrid  agreed  to   organize
         technical  workshops  on professional training and management
         of GISs.

            This is the fifth edition of such a workshop which goal is
         the  improvement  in  the  knowledges  on automated cadasdral
         cartography.

            Guided to university graduates in order  to  provide  them
         with   basic  formation  and  retraining,  its  contents  are
         established  about  technical  aspects  of  traditional   and
         automated cartography and GISs.



                             PROGRAM OF ACTIVITIES

            I. Automated cartography and GISs.


                The purpose of this chapter is to show  procedures  on
                automated  cartography  and  GISs.  It will be studied
                equipment and software for graphical applications  and
                components  of  a  GIS.  Special  stress  is  made  in
                practical problems of management of this  systems  and
                products   on  the  market  are  analyzed.  Some  real
                experiences   of   public   agencies    and    private
                organizations  are  shown. This module has twenty-four
                hours.



            II. Geodesical and mathematical cartography.


                First   are   presented   fundamental   concepts    of
                geometrical   geodesy,  like  geodesic  astronomy  and
                specially geodesical  networks.  In  the  other  hand,
                fundamental  concepts  of mathematical cartography are
                established with emphasys on conformal  mapping.  This
                module has sixteen hours.



            III. Data capture



                Topography methodologies, photogsadf and klasafsfd for
                data  capture  are  analyzed.  It  will  be  made some
                practical works  on  photogrammetry.  Basic  works  on
                topography   will  consist  of  angles  and  distances
                measurement, and  field  surveying.  This  module  has
                twenty-four hours.



            IV. Cadasdral cartography: training and characteristics.


                The aim of this  chapter  is  to  get  acquinted  with
                cadasdral    cartography.   Data   capture,   thematic
                cartography,  and   quality   control   of   cadastral
                cartography are exhaustively analyzed. This module has
                sixteen hours.
