At present, the display of objects of cultural heritage of Islamic civilization on thematic maps of various scales is a developing
and very promising area of modern science. To date, specific methods for mapping cultural heritage objects have not yet been
developed, and some theoretical and practical issues of their development based on existing methods are considered.
Accordingly, this article proposes a number of examples of the formation of a geodatabase of cultural heritage objects of Islamic
civilization based on GIS programs and a bank of their symbols. In addition, the necessary classifications were developed for
mapping objects of religious, cultural and educational heritage of Uzbekistan, and the system of signs displayed on the map was
divided into appropriate groups by scale. The sizes of groups of symbols displayed on the map by means of a cartographic image
are calculated depending on the change in the scale series.
