In this paper, we generalize the notions of preserving and strongly preserving maps to arbitrary set based topological categories. Further, we obtain characterizations of each of these concepts as well as interprete analogues and generalizations of theorems of Gerlits at al [20] in the categories of filter and local filter convergence spaces.
