三维地貌表示方法的演进

在地图上表现地貌的三维形态．是地图学研究的难点和热点。地貌表示法的发展，体现了人类对自然环境认知水平的提高和科学技术的进步．也代表了地图学的进步。回顾地貌表示方法的演进，有助于把握地图学发展的历史脉搏．加深对地图学未来发展的认识。表文按年代顺序，来描述地貌表示法的三种主要类型一写景符号法、水平投影法和地景仿真法的发展演变及其文化与技术背景和关键人物.

The Evolution of 3D Relief Presentation

It is a difficulty and a focus of cartographic research to present three-dimension form of relief on map. The development of relief presentation reflects the improvement of cognition about natural environment and the progress of science and technology, and represents the progress of cartography. Reviewing the evolution of relief presentations is helpful for us to feel the history of cartography and foresee its future. The paper describes the evolution of 3D relief presentations and the related background of culture and technology as well as important persons chronologically.
