Abstract

Concepts of space and time were important for man, at various levels, for philosophy, science and religion. Astronomy, Philosophy, Mathematics, Physics, Geography and Cartography were most involved topics. Actually, shape and history of Universe, and specially of Earth, are related to their representation: so, ideas about space and time have largely coped with survey and mapping, from Geodesy to Geomatics.
