Czech Cartographic conferences are a long-standing meeting of cartographers, showcasing achievements, addressing challenges, and providing a platform to discuss the field’s future. The series began in 1967. Since 2015, the conferences have been held every two years. The 26th Cartographic Conference was held in Brno in September 2025.

Map of the Year is a prestigious competition organized by the Czech Cartographic Society to recognize outstanding cartographic works created in the Czech Republic. Since 1997, it has highlighted excellence and innovation across a wide range of products, including printed maps and atlases, digital maps, mobile and web applications, and other cartographic projects by both professionals and students. 

The aim of the competition is to develop children’s creative expression about the world, enhance their graphic awareness, and deepen their understanding of the environment. Children from the Czech Republic have participated regularly since 1995, with six artworks selected each year for the international round. In 2025, Ondřej Šlechta’s drawing “The Start of My Way” achieved a wonderful 3rd place in the 9–12 age category of the competition.

The Czech Cartographic Society organizes an event called Cartographic Day Olomouc . When creating a map (or an atlas), three institutions typically collaborate: a subject-matter expert, a cartographer, and a technical specialist responsible for map production. The purpose of these seminars is to help these experts communicate and work together.

Cartoanniversaries are one-day professional seminars dedicated to a selected cartographic topic, combined with a reflection on significant milestones in both global and Czech cartographic history. The seminar typically includes an introductory presentation on historical milestones, invited talks on the chosen cartographic theme, and a concluding open discussion between speakers and participants.
