the Centenary of the Royal Thai Survey Department (1985).
Modern map surveying in Thailand began in the reign of King
Chulalongkorn in 1875. The Map Survey Division was established to
build the roads in Bangkok and lay out the map for the telegraph linking
Bangkok to Phra Tabong (Battambong) and also to map around the Thai
Gulf. He also ordered the establishment of Thai cartography school
in 1882, which later became the Royal Thai Survey Department in 1885. |
