ABSTRACT
New means and forms of media develop dynamically in the contemporary world. Field researches results do not have to be popularized only in text or tabular static elaborations forms.
Widely available computer techniques and tools can be used to their presentation equally well.
They enable creating internet applications which make interaction with a user possible through
various components.
The aim of the paper is to present topic internet conception of a map which shows mountain
river’s hydromorphological diversity on the example of Wieprzówka stream. Project assumes
spatial relation of objects observed in the field by means of geographic coordinates plotted on
the interactive globe’s map. Its informative and multimedia character was presumed in the map’s
project.
Field tests the results of which were presented on the map were performed within the frames of
initiative to create given watercourses base proposed by the international ecological organization
called in short WWF (World Wide Fund for Nature) and Poznań University of Life Sciences.
