History of Science and Engineering Annotation << Back Developing a Strategy for Mapping Siberia in the Reconstructive Period (1920–1930) Murenko D.I., Osipov A.G. The article considers aspects of developing the main provisions of the program for mapping Siberia in the context of the beginning of industrialization of the mega-region. The cartographic conference occupies a special place here, since it allowed to dramatically expand the possibilities of developing the natural resources of the region. The conference accelerated the formulation of issues of applying advanced technologies of topographic, geodetic and cartographic works in the interests of the national economy. It is concluded that the 1st Siberian cartographic conference made a signifi cant contribution to the topographic and geodetic development of the region and research in the fi eld of astronomy, geodesy and cartography. The formation of the system of mapping the region allowed to further promote the implementation of the Ural-Kuznetsk project and the industrial development of the mega-region as a whole. Keywords: Sibkraiplan, topographic and geodetic services, Siberian scientists, military topographic administration, industrialization of the mega-region, advanced mapping technologies.
