The Landscape Maps of the National Atlas of Cuba LX Anniversary

Summary

The purpose of the present work is to set out the fundamental ideas underlying the preparation of the three maps that make up the Landscapes section of the National Atlas of Cuba LX Anniversary, published in 2019. The Landscapes theme is a subsection of the Nature section, presenting the following maps of Cuba: Anthroponatural Landscape, Cultural Landscape, and Geographical Regionalization, all at a scale of 1:1,000,000. Rather than the characteristics of the natural, economic, social, and cultural components, the authors aim to highlight the systemic interrelation within them, which manifests itself in specific spatial patterns, with features of individuality and uniqueness.
