CHANGES OF THE HYDROGRAPHIC CONFLUENCE IN SIELPIA FROM THE BEGINNING OF THE 19TH CENTURY (OLD-POLISH INDUSTRIAL DISTRICT)
Abstract
The case study of the hydrographic confluence in the Sielpia based on the cartographic method allowed to capture changes in the hydrographic network related to the development and decline of the Old-Polish Industrial District (OPID), which was based on the use of hydropower in iron metallurgy. The formation and disappearance of artificial industrial reservoirs and canals, and also changes of the rivers course, were reflected in cartographic materials.
