MAKING A COMPARATIVE WAY BETWEEN THE DEVELOPMENT IN PRODUCING DIGITAL MAP AND HARD COPY MAP

Abstract

This research depends on the comparing the development between digital mapand hard copy map for the same region after passing period of time.The work was done with a high accuracy corrected satellite photo taken (Quick Bird)with (0. 6 m) resolution for 2003, and also used hard copy map for the same city (Mosulcity ) for 2000 which lie between ْ 44 longitude and ْ 36 latitude . And in this research willupdate hard copy map from satellite image and then find the new features such asbuildings, roads,…….etc .That is happened on this area after the period of time andfinally compare between hard copy map and digital map, by knowing the changes.
