Geobotanical research finds its syntheses in the production of cartographic documents (maps) which constitute a privileged medium of presentation of information and scientific data on plants in relation to environmental conditions. The significance of new geobotanical maps for already many years has been greatly augmented above all by the contribution that these may make to understanding and solution of environmental problems, such as protection of the flora, zonation of protected areas, management of plant resources and urban planning. For such reasons, the Faculty of Natural Sciences and Technology of the University of Camerino instituted in 1998 the course Geobotanical Cartography for members of the Scuola di Specializzazione in Gestione dell'Ambiente Naturale e delle Aree Protette (School of Management of the Natural Environment and Protected Areas) and for students in the Natural and Biological Sciences as a general degree course. In this book, born of the necessity to provide students a textbook for geobotanical cartography, we try to present the fundamental concepts in this field, which are otherwise sparse in truly scientific publications which often have limited circulation and are difficult to find. This has theoretical as well as practical value, and tries to give the students both an instructional aid for preparation for their exams and theses, and a reference text. Given the high degree of specialization in the material treated, this text is filled with many bibliographic references from various authors, not only to give the reader the greatest possibility for research from original sources but also as a cultural basis. The book is concerned principally with geobotanical mapping but also contains a chapter dedicated to environmental mapping, because of the contribution that this has received from the former and because of its own current trends and contributions
