In this article, the issue of transferring historical and cartographic data from scientific resources into digital format is comprehensively examined. Each country determines the priorities of digital development and conducts intensive work. The development of the global economy is also taking place through digital transformations. The methodology of preparing historical and cartographic resources in the context of digital globalization includes a comprehensive approach that combines the stimulation of effective digital transformation processes and the optimization of human capital. Based on these trends, the importance and urgency of creating historical and cartographic resources in the context of digital globalization is emphasized. This is due to the fact that the problem of preserving historical resources at the country level is currently in a difficult situation. Historically important cartographic materials become obsolete over time. These materials should be preserved as part of the informational heritage, and the work of transferring them to future generations should be carried out continuously. In this regard, a methodology for creating the historical and cartographic resources in electronic format was developed. An analysis of the best world practices in creating historically important cartographic databases was conducted. In this regard, the electronic resources compiled by a group of scientists from the Vatican Library and Harvard University were studied. The results and methods obtained during the research can be considered as a model for the creation of a historical and cartographic database at the national level.
