Pristupi i rješenja za izradu atlasa u geografskim informacijskim sustavima https://doi.org/10.32909/kg.19.33.1

The features, advantages and disadvantages of using QGIS, ArcGIS and MapInfo Pro when creating atlases of various types (geographic, complex and thematic) are considered in this paper. Schemes for their potential organization are presented and technological schemes for their automated creation in these geographic information systems are proposed. As a result, approaches and solutions for improving geographic information software can be formulated. Algorithms and modules were developed, primarily aimed at formalizing the structure of atlases and automating the design process of their mathematical basis. The development of functionality was implemented using built-in developer tools implemented in MapInfo as the MapBasic language, and in ArcGIS and QGIS in the Python programming language. A summary table was compiled, which presents the basic functionalities required to create atlases in GIS and their implementation in the appropriate software. These proposals will ensure the fulfillment of all requirements necessary for atlas design, primarily at the regional mapping level.U radu se razmatraju obilježja, prednosti i nedostatci softvera QGIS, ArcGIS i MapInfo Pro za izradu različitih tipova atlasa (geografskih, složenih i tematskih). Prikazane su sheme moguće organizacije takvih atlasa te predložene tehnološke sheme za njihovu automatsku izradu u razmatranim geografskim informacijskim sustavima (GIS). Ishod je formulacija pristupa i rješenja za poboljšanje softvera za GIS. Razvijeni su algoritmi i moduli čiji je glavni cilj formaliziranje strukture atlasa i automatizacija procesa oblikovanja njihove matematičke osnove. Razvoj funkcionalnosti ugrađen je s pomoću postojećih alata u softveru MapInfo kao jezik MapBasic, a u softverima ArcGIS i QGIS u jeziku Python. Izrađena je pregledna tablica koja prikazuje osnovne funkcionalnosti potrebne za izradu atlasa u GIS-u te njihovu ugradnju u razmatrani softver. Ti će prijedlozi osigurati ispunjenje svih potrebnih zahtjeva za izradu atlasa, pogotovo na regionalnoj razini kartiranja
