Abstract

The paper describes the present-day trends in the fields of graphics opened up by the use of new computer tools. A topometrically treated geodesic map was here used as the base upon which information as to various municipal areas of activity and services is programmed. Given the importance of Town and Country Planning in bringing on the future evolution of the city, those legal decisions taken as to what and then how this should happen when fed into such a database will lead on to a properly planned development as they, on introduction, will be adapted to all changes undergone already in the infrastructure of the city that is to come. Complex soft- and hardware are required to answer present day technical and alfanumeric needs but allow for the using of vast amounts of stored information that can now be automatically updated or adapted to changes caused by civic development. The paper underlines the fact that the information available is the property of each service in question and, though it can be accessed through internet links, requires the go-ahead of the department head involved.
