#ShadedRelief

[vizcart]

For this map we decided to display the relief in two variants: one with elevation only and one with bathymetry added.

This map was realized in 1888 and with the digital restoration we tried to find the original coloration.

The ancient inscription reads:

"Carta altimetrica e batometrica dell'Italia, costrutta e disegnata da Guido Cora, pubblicata sotto gli auspici del ministero d'agricoltura, industria e commercio dall'Istituto Geografico Guido Cora, 1888."

Source of the old map: BnF Gallica.

As announced, a new map has been added to the European collection.

We had started this paper years ago, but it had never been finalized. Since we didn't even have a dedicated map of Switzerland yet, we thought it was appropriate to remediate!

This is a geotectonic map of Switzerland that among the authors also has Imhof. It was realized in 1972 but published in 1978 inside the Atlas of Switzerland.

You can find the original sheet in the David Rumsey Map Collection.

We realised there were plenty of maps on Spain, Portugal and more specific places in those states, but we realised there was one big absentee: a map covering the entire Iberian peninsula, so here it is.

This map was prepared by J. Bartholomew and published in The Times Atlas of the World. Mid-Century Edition by Houghton Mifflin Co. in 1956.
