172KiG 2009, 12SGA Pages Continuation of the Mega Map Production  in the Republic of CroatiaAfter putting up the 11 m × 6 m mega map of the Dubrovnik-Neretva County and breaking the Guinness World Record in the category of the largest printed map in the world, the production and presentation of mega maps has continued in various county seats of the Republic of Croatia, according to the plan of the State Geodetic Ad-ministration (SGA). The production of topographic maps at the scale of 1: 25 000 (TK25) is finished in those areas. In addition to SGA, counties and cities also participated in financing.After Dubrovnik, the Krapina-Zagorje County obtained its mega map, followed by the Virovitica-Podravina County, the Island of Hvar, Međimurje County, Bjelovar-Bilogora County, Koprivnica-Križevci County and Slavon-ski Brod-Posavina County. A mega map of 4 m × 3.5 m was put on the wall of the Krapina Highschool in Krapina (Fig. 1) on April 23, 2008. The map consists of 21 sheets and enables the interested inhabitants, tourists and visitors to view the area.After Krapina, a mega map was presented in the Virovitica-Podravina County on the occasion of the County Day celebration on September 3, 2008. The 7 m × 6.3 m mega map consists of 29 TK25 sheets and was placed at King Tomislav Square No. 6 in Virovitica (Fig. 2). The mega map, which adorns Virovitica’s downtown, Fig. 1.

Na tim područjima završena je izrada topografskih karata u mjerilu 1: 25 000 (TK25), gdje su u financiranju pored DGU sudjelovale i županije, odnos-no gradovi.Nakon Dubrovnika svoj kartozid dobila je Krapin-sko-zagorska županija, zatim Virovitičko-podravska županija, Hvar, Međimurska županija, Bjelovarsko-bi-logorska županija, Koprivničko-križevačka i Brodsko-posavska županija. Dana 23. travnja 2008. u Krapini je na zidu Sredn-je škole Krapina (sl. 1) postavljen kartozid veličine 4 m Nastavak izrade kartozida  u Republici Hrvatskoj× 3,5 m, izrađen iz 21 lista koji na taj način omogućava zainteresiranim stanovnicima, turistima i posjetiteljima pregled tog područja u velikom mjerilu.Nakon Krapine predstavljen je kartozid u Virovitičko-podravskoj županiji u povodu Dana te županije 3. rujna 2008. Ta megakarta dimenzija 7 m × 6,3 m, izrađena je iz 29 listova karte TK25 i postavljena u Virovitici na Trgu kralja Tomislava br. 6 (sl. 2). Uz predstavljanje kartozida koji krasi centar Virovitice na svečanoj sjednici županije, županu su uručene dvije kožne mape sa svim kartama županije s ukupno 26 izrađenih listova TK25.Kartozid otoka Hvara postavljen je u sklopu obi-lježavanja Grada Hvara i zaštitnika biskupije Hvarsko-Bračko-Viške, dana 3. listopada 2008. u Gradu Hvaru (sl. 3). Za njegovu lokaciju odabran je zid u samom cen-tru Grada Hvara u predjelu Dolac. Veličina kartozida je 6 m × 2,8 m, a on se sastoji od 24 lista TK25 i prikazu-je cijeli otok Hvar, a posebno je uvećan sam Grad Hvar.Fig. 2. Mega map in ViroviticaSlika 2. Kartozid u Virovitici174KiG 2009, 12SGA Pages was presented at the ceremonial county assembly. In addition, two leather folders containing all the county maps, totalling 26 produced TK25 sheets were handed to the county prefect on the occasion.The mega map of the Island of Hvar was put up on the occasion of the Day of the City of Hvar and the patron saint of the Hvar-Brač-Vis Bishopric, October 3, 2008, in the City of Hvar (Fig. 3). A wall in the very centre of the City of Hvar, in the Dolac quarter, was chosen for its location. The map is 6 m × 2.8 m and consists of 24 TK25 sheets showing the entire Island of Hvar with the City of Hvar especially enlarged.After Virovitica and Hvar, the mega map of the Međimurje County was presented on November 28, 2008. The map is 4 m × 3 m, consists of 13 TK25 sheets and shows the area of the County with the City of Čakovec shown separately as the county seat (Fig. 4).Thereafter, the mega map of the Bjelovar-Bilogora County, 6 m × 5 m was produced and presented on December 3, 2008, in Juraj Haulik Street in downtown Bjelovar (Fig. 5). Unlike all the previously placed mega maps, where the illustration was enlarged to the scale of 1:15 500, 1:12 500 was used with the mega map of the Virovitica-Požega County and Hvar.On April 14, 2009, in the presence of heads of the SGA, Koprivnica-Križevci County, cities of Koprivnica and Križevci, as well as the judiciary and the public, another Fig. 3. Mega map of the Island of HvarSlika 3. Kartozid otoka Hvaramega map of the county was presented in Koprivnica at the scale of 1:25 000 and consisting of 25 TK25 sheets. The Koprivnica mega map of 5 m × 4 m was put up in the frequented pedestrian passage between Nemčićeva Street and Croatian Sovereignty Street on the northern facade of the county administration building (Fig. 6).The eighth mega map was put up on the county build-ing in Slavonski Brod on the occasion of the Slavonski Brod-Posavina County Day on April 29, 2009. The map represents an uninterrupted sequence of 35 TK25 sheets connected into one map. The resulting 7.5 m × 3 m mega map shows the area of the entire county with a separate and enlarged area of the City of Slavonski Brod (Fig. 7). This completed the production of the official topographic map at the scale of 1:25 000 of this county.Mega maps are planned for production for the Primorje-Gorski Kotar, Istria, Sisak-Moslavina, Zagreb, Šibenik-Knin, Varaždin, Požega-Slavonia, Split-Dalmatia, Vukovar-Srijem and Karlovac counties, followed by activi-ties for the remaining counties and individual cities in the Republic of Croatia.Although none of the mega maps has come anywhere near the dimensions of the Dubrovnik Mega map, this is not going to be the case much longer, because even larger mega maps are being planned.Ivan Landek Igor Vilus Ivan GrubićFig. 4. Mega map in ČakovecSlika 4. Kartozid u ČakovcuKiG 2009, 12175Stranice DGUNakon Virovitice i Hvara, 28. studenoga 2008. pred-stavljen je kartozid Međi-murske županije. Taj je kartozid veličine 4 m × 3 m izrađen iz 13 listova TK25, a prikazuje područje županije s posebno izdvojenim područjem gra-da Čakovca kao sjedištem županije (sl. 4).Nakon toga izrađena je i postavljena megakarta Bjel-ovarsko-bilogorske županije dimenzija 6 m × 5 m i to 3. prosinca 2008. u ulici Jurja Haulika u središtu Bjel-ovaru (sl. 5). Na taj način završila je izrada novih 33 lis-tova TK25, koje su osnova za sva planiranja u prostoru.Fig. 7: Mega map in Slavonski BrodSlika 7: Kartozid u Slavonskom BroduFig. 6.

Kartozid u BjelovaruZa razliku od svih do tada postavljenih kartozida, gdje je prikaz povećan u mjerilo 1: 15 500, kod kartozi-da Virovitičko-podravske županije i Hvara korišteno je mjerilo 1: 12 500.U Koprivnici je 14. travnja 2009. uz nazočnost čelnika Državne geodetske uprave, Koprivničko-križevačke županije, Grada Koprivnice i Križevaca te sudbene vlas-ti i javnosti predstavljena još jedna megakarta županije u mjerilu 1:25 000 koja se sastoji od 25 listova TK25. Koprivnički kartozid, dimenzija 5 m × 4 m, postavljen je u frekventnom pješačkom prolazu između Nemčićeve i Ulice hrvatske državnosti na sjeverno pročelje zgrade županije (sl. 6).U povodu Dana Brodsko-posavske županije, 29. travnja 2009., na zgradi županije u Slavonskom Brodu postavljen je osmi kartozid, koji predstavlja neprekinuti niz od 35 listova TK25 spojenih u jednu kartu. Izrađena megakarta dimenzija 7,5 m × 3 m prikazuje područje cijele županije, s posebno izdvojenim i uvećanim područjem grada Slavonskog Broda (sl. 7). Time je završena iz-rada službene topografske karte u mjerilu 1:25 000 na području te županije.Planirana je izrada kartozida za područja Primorsko-goranske, Istarske, Sisačko-moslavačke, Zagrebačke, Šibensko-kninske, Varaždinske, Požeš-ko-slavonske, Splitsko-dalmatinske, Vukovarsko-srijemske i Karlovačke županije, a slijede i aktivnosti za preostale županije i po-jedine gradove u Republici Hrvatskoj.Iako se nijedan od dosada postavljenih kartozida nije približio dimenzijama Dubrovačkog kartozida, tako neće još dugo ostati, jer je planirana izrada kartozida još većih dinmenzija.Ivan Landek, Igor Vilus, Ivan Grubić
