Digital maps are basic elements of a geographic information

system (GIS). In dialog mode, the map’s function is to provide

access to an accumulated non-cartographic database reference

that connects descriptive and static information associated with

objects on the map. Non-cartographic data are visualized as

tables, graphs and images (including satellite digital images).

Digital maps are created in the instrumental GIS environment.
