SELECTED POSSIBILITIES OF DATA EXCERPTION FROM THE DATABASE OF HISTORICAL ATLASES
A large database of more than 400 existing historical atlases released after 1950 was created as a result of an extensive analytic research within thepreparation of cartographic workson the Czech Historical Atlas. The database was published in the form of a web application that allows the user to reveal and analyse associated information about historical atlases across interactive dashboards. To improve the information value of the database,the authors decided to arrange further possibilities of data excerptionwith the use of specialized data visualization methods that may reveal additionalinformation andnew phenomena which are not clearly visible from the databaseitself. The performed analyses supplement the paper in the form of diagrams and charts and present the data from various perspectives with the focus on similarities and differences between the cartographic and the thematic content of the historical atlases in the publishing countries, thechangesin the thematic focus of the atlases or changes in the use of methods of thematic cartography in atlas works over time. The authors also deal with relations between the thematic focus of the atlas and the applied methods of thematic cartography. All analyses are performed on the sample of 88 atlas works
