Abstract

The paper describes Internet information
sources divided into following three groups: bibliographic
databases, citation databases and databases
with full texts including electronic journals. Bibliographic
databases Bibliographia Cartographica,
GEOPHOKA, Scopus and Current Contents (CC)
are analyzed concerning cartographic content representation.
Searching the Current Contents database
resulted in data about cartographers with more than
10 papers in CC journals. According to the Web of
Science citation database, data are given about the
most cited cartographers in papers published during
the period between 1955 and the end of 2008
on the condition that each paper was cited at least
once between 2000 and 2008. Data are also given
about two most cited cartographic papers in the last
50 years. The PERO browser (web service of the
Ruđer Bošković Institute) was used to make a list of
cartographic and related electronic journals and electronic
versions of printed journals with full text available
to Croatian academic and scientific community.
