  • Report of Thailand on Cartographic Activities During the Period of 2007-2009*

The Royal Thai Survey Department (RTSD) The Royal Thai Survey Department is the national mapping organization under the Royal Thai Armed Forces Headquarters , Ministry of Defense. Its responsibilities are to survey and to produce topographic maps of Thailand in support of national security , spatial data infrastructure and other country development projects. The work done during 2007-2009 is summarized as follows. 1. Topographic maps in Thailand Topographic maps in Thailand were initiated in the reign of King Rama the 5th. In 1868, topographic maps covering border area on the west of Thailand were carried out for the purpose of boundary demarcation between Thailand and Burma. Collaboration with western countries, maps covering Bangkok and Thonburi were produced. During 1875, with farsighted thought in country development, King Rama the 5th established Topographic Department serving road construction in Bangkok and set up telecommunication network from Bangkok to Pratabong city. Besides, during this period of time, maps covering Thai gulf were produced serving marine navigation use. In 1881, Mr. Mcarthy from the United Kingdom was appointed as director of Royal Thai Survey Department (RTSD), previously known as Topographic Department, and started conducting Triangulation survey in Thailand.

  • Integral Study of the Silk Roads: Roads of Dialogue
    INTEGRAL STUDY OF THE SILK ROADS: ROADS OF DIALOGUE 21-22 JANUARY 1991 BANGKOK, THAILAND Document No. 1 6 Maritime Trade during the 14th and the 17th Century: Evidence from the Underwater Archaeological Sites In the Gulf of Siam Mr. Sayan Prichanchit 1 Maritime Trade during the 14th and the 17th Century: Evidence from the Underwater Archaeological Sites in the Gulf of Siam Sayan Prichanchit Introduction The catchword in today's transportation field is convenience. Journeys to distant continents which might be thousands of miles away can be made within hours in aircrafts that have been developed to achieve supersonic speed. However, the high cost of airfreight discourages merchants from using it to transport heavy and bulky cargo which is more economically moved by sea-faring vessels - a mode of transport which has been utilized by merchants for thousands of years. Ships can sail at much higher speeds and can carry tens of thousands of tons in this modern era, but they also continue to provide housing and office space for all of those who sail them in much the same way that they have in the past. All of the activities of man's daily life are still squeezed on board. There is evidence to suggest that sea traders from afar were present on the river plains in central Thailand and along the coast of the Gulf of Siam down to the Malay Peninsula since the 4th or 5th century. During the 7th to the 11th centuries when human settlement had become more prominent, with the Dvaravati Kingdom controlling much of central Thailand and the Srivijaya Kingdom's territory covering the Malay Peninsula and the Indonesian Archipelago, evidence of maritime trade routes include ceramics from China, glass and stone beads from India and Persia, and cult icons, all of which had been carried to the region by these maritime traders and introduced to the indigenous people.
