Sažetak
This paper presents an overview of the work of Ruler Josip Boškovic, emphasising his activities as a cartographer and surveyor. Boškovic made a great contribution to the geodesy and surveying of his time through innovations which he initially used to achieve better accuracy of measurement. He concluded that existing maps did not meet the needs of professional and expert use. As a result of his surveying and travels, he made a Map of the Ecclesiastical State, often appending his opinions and criticisms of other experts.
