Abstract: Topographic information of the territory is essential in many areas of the sciences, especially in those involving the discipline of Geography in its broadest sense and aspects. However, the cartographic representation of the territory can be considered the 'first' drawing of the long process of the urban planning project. Without this 'first' drawing, the town planner is unable to deal with this task of planning satisfactorily. The proper representation of the morphology, or if you prefer, the geomorphology of the territory and of the elements and objects it 'supports and contains', is manifested in the cartographic representation that the architect or urban planner needs to define their proposed planning. This article discusses 'the graphic evolution' of these first and necessary 'base maps', from a purely instrumental point of view and from one of the visual perception of the solutions adopted, focusing on urban plans drafted in the last four decades.
