Cartographic heritage is a component of the overall world's cultural heritage. It concerns specifically all the valuables which are or may be inherited from historic cartography and maps. It concerns also all the cartography heirs who are the receivers of the benefits offered by cartography, maps and mapmaking of the past. Cartographic heritage issues are thus addressed not only to experts but also to society and to the general public.

The digital approaches to cartographic heritage is a meeting area of modern cartography digital mainstream and of history of cartography, maps and mapmaking.
