Surveying and mapping, an industry closely related to economic and social development, is also an unknown industry. August 29th, 2022 is the19th National Surveying and Mapping Law Publicity Day with the theme of "There is nothing wrong with standardizing the use of maps". The Ministry of Natural Resources organized the 2022 Surveying and Mapping Law Publicity Day and National Map Awareness Publicity Week from 26 August to 9 September 1 day to further enhance the public's awareness of national maps and advocate the standardized use of standard maps.
National territory is the territory in which a country exercises sovereignty and jurisdiction, and it also refers to a map reflecting the national territory. The national territory reflects the sovereign will of the country and its political and diplomatic stance in the international community. Like the national flag, national emblem and national anthem, it is a symbol of national sovereignty and territorial integrity.
The consciousness of national territory mainly refers to citizens' understanding, recognition and conscious maintenance of national territory. It is the responsibility and obligation of every citizen to be familiar with the composition of national territory and consciously safeguard the integrity of national territory and sovereignty. Establishing national territorial consciousness is the need to strengthen patriotism education and safeguard national territorial dignity and integrity.
Maps representing national territory symbolize national sovereignty and territorial integrity, and reflect the sovereign will and political and diplomatic stance of the country. If the map is drawn incorrectly, there may be problems that damage the sovereignty and territorial integrity of the country and cause bad political influence.
During the Tenth Five-Year Plan period, the Ministry of Natural Resources has always taken the theme of "standardizing the use of maps without making mistakes" to educate and guide every citizen, constantly enhance the awareness of national territory, be familiar with the composition of national territory, correctly standardize the use of maps, ensure that China's territory is "error-free", and safeguard national sovereignty and territorial integrity with practical actions.
Map is one of the important manifestations of surveying and mapping geographic information data, and map compilation is an important part of surveying and mapping geographic information work. The fundamental orientation of surveying and mapping geographic information work in the new era is to "support economic and social development, support natural resource management, and continuously improve the ability and level of surveying and mapping geographic information work".
Zhonghaida advocates that in daily life, we should do the following:
1, take care of the map and don't insult it.
2. Keep state secrets, and do not upload or mark confidential information.
3, consciously resist piracy and "problem map", timely report and reflect to the local natural resources authorities.
4. Carefully quote historical maps and use legal maps recognized by the state.
Standardize the use of maps, it is not wrong at all!
