Abstract
ABSTRACT The process of political and territorial unification of the Kingdom of Italy (1860) and Austria-Hungary (1867) highlighted the issues of territoriality both on land and at sea. As a part of that effort, a need of maritime survey of the Adriatic conducted by the joint forces of the Austro-Hungarian and Italian hydrographic offices appeared. The purpose of this endeavour was to enable the production of modern charts based on a comprehensive survey covering the whole sea surface area, from coast to coast. Under the supervision of Commander Tobias Ritter von Oesterreicher and Counter-Admiral Duke Antonio Imbert, the survey started in 1866 and, by the end of 1873, resulted in a general chart of the Adriatic, 4 course charts of the Adriatic Sea, 55 coastal charts as well as number of harbour plans. This paper presents an analysis of the course of the survey, its products as well as its impact on the subsequent cartography of the Adriatic Sea.
摘要意大利王国(1860年)和奥匈帝国(1867年)的政治和领土统一进程突出了陆地和海上的领土问题。作为这项工作的一部分,似乎需要由奥匈帝国和意大利水文局的联合部队对亚得里亚海进行海上调查。这项工作的目的是在对从海岸到海岸的整个海面进行全面调查的基础上制作现代海图。在指挥官Tobias Ritter von Oestreicher和海军中将Duke Antonio Imbert的监督下,调查始于1866年,到1873年底,得出了亚得里亚海总图、4个亚得里亚海道图、55个海岸图以及一些港口规划。本文分析了此次调查的过程、结果及其对随后亚得里亚海制图的影响。
