Abstract: Harmonic maps from $B{R}^2$ or one-connected domain $OsubsetB{R}^2$ into $GL(m,BC)$ and $U(m)$ are treated. The GBDT version of the B"acklund-Darboux transformation is applied to the case of the harmonic maps. A new general formula on the GBDT transformations of the Sym-Tafel immersions is derived. A class of the harmonic maps similar in certain ways to line-solitons is obtained explicitly and studied.
