This paper discusses the achievements of A. Z. Petrov in the area of conformal and projective structure of space-times. In fact, it will be mostly concerned with the latter topic but points out uses of the former in developing the projective theory of space-times. Some new developments in this area of Petrov's research will be given.
Keywords: projective structure, Petrov classification, curvature map.
