摘要：Spatial databases contain feature classes that represent real world. Content of geographic database is mainly designed for GIS analysis. However, a spatial database for cartographic visualization should contain some more rules and information for visualization. Cartographic visualization of a spatial database is usually in map format. Being expressed in this study, Joint Operations Graphics (JOG) is cartographic visualization of Vector Smart Map Level 1 (VMAP L-1) spatial database. JOG Air and Ground series at scale 1:250000 are used for joint operations of allied forces. VMAP L-1 is a spatial database with a content of middle scale maps such as JOGs at scale 1:250000. JOG Air and Ground series are used for planning of short and long distance flight, air-ground tactical operations, helicopter operations, tactical and close-air support, visual navigation, and air-ground coordinated operations and strategic/operational planning purposes by ground units and civil aviation. First and second editions of JOG series are produced by General Command of Mapping (GCM) - (Harita Genel Komutanl...-HGK) - between 1971-1973 and 1983-1987 respectively. Vector Smart Map Level 1 (VMAP L-1) database is presently used for the production of third edition by means of database driven cartographic visualization methods. Visualization based on database driven cartography allows not only producing different types of cartographic products, but also maintaining consistency of data within database. In this paper, Digital Landscape Model (DLM) and Digital Cartographic Model (DCM) of J OG charts are given. The JOG production workflow comprising data preparation, data processing, visualization and reproduction, which are based on database driven cartography is expressed
