Abstract

The use of Geographic Information Systems is crucial for resolving issues in cartographic production. In this regard, the accurate orientation of the map frame is a constant concern. Therefore, appropriate corrections must be made to ensure the quality of the map sheets. This work aims to present a procedure that allows correcting the orientation of trapezoids in Cuban topographic maps within a Geographic Information System. To validate this procedure, the QGIS software and several trapezoids from the Digital Topographic Map at a scale of 1:250,000 of the Republic of Cuba were employed.
