ABSTRACT
Visualization of objects on interactive maps usually completes a design process which is preceded by collecting and processing of data. The same applies to the list of monuments (objects of cultural heritage), as its compilation requires both field and office works. The aim of the paper was to evaluate if registers monuments maintained by Polish communes (gminas) can be presented with Google Fusion Tables and Leaflet software, the tools that are specifically used to provide and visualize data. Successive stages of creating a communal register of monuments in Poland – from surveying the objects of heritage in the field to preparing their address cards and creating electronic map application – were presented in the paper. In conclusion, it was proved that a web mapping service, in which text description and photographic documentation of presented objects are complemented with data about their location, can perfectly supplement the communal list of objects of cultural heritage compiled as a standard paper address cards.
