Book excerpt: Petermann's Maps focuses on the maps published in the famous German journal Petermanns Geographische Mitteilungen. This journal, which still exists today, greatly influenced the development of scientific geography and cartography in Germany in the nineteenth century. Numerous articles have been published by recognized experts in this field, along with a multitude of illustrations, showing maps, prints and photographs. The journal developed into an important publication, setting the standard in the history of the great expeditions and discoveries, and European colonial matters. Petermann's Maps contains a bibliography of over 3400 maps, the complete series of maps published in Petermanns Geographische Mitteilungen between the year of its foundation, 1855, to the end of the Second World War. Besides the bibliography 160 of the most attractive geographical and thematic coloured maps are included in Petermann's Maps. These maps can also be viewed on the CD-ROM accompanying the book.An extensive introduction precedes the cartobibliography proper, placing Petermanns Geographische Mitteilungen in its historical context. The introduction describes the history of geography from the eighteenth century onwards, outlining the development of the study of the science of cartography in Germany. The major role the founder of the journal, Augustus Petermann (1822-1878), and the publishing house Justus Perthes in Gotha played in these developments is discussed at length.

Download or read book Western Europe North America and Australasia written by Rolf Bohme and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2013-10-22 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Topographic mapping plays a basic and important role within the extensive field of cartography. In recent years, this type of mapping has become somewhat neglected and available literature is normally restricted to details concerning the programmes of individual countries, often presented in the form of monographs. Topographic maps are essential tools for use in development projects, resource exploitation, the planning of construction, infrastructure and recreation. Furthermore, they give a detailed illustration of the relative degrees of development of areas within a landscape and are thus unique in demonstrating the cultural status of a country. This book is the first of three volumes and provides an introduction to world topographic mapping giving details and examples of topographic maps from Western Europe, North America and Australasia. The information supplied for each country consists of a text, including a brief history of the development of topographic mapping, geodetic data, map scales and series, as well as extracts of maps and index sheets illustrating the present status of map coverage within that country. There is currently no other work employing the approach adopted in assembling this `inventory'. This work is a comprehensive and important reference and source book for information in the field of topographic mapping.

This book was released on 2022-06-15 with total page 317 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Geodiversität - oder genauer gesagt: der natürliche Bereich von geomorphologischen Strukturen ist das Thema dieses Buches. Die Geodiversität von Vorarlberg und Liechtenstein ist gross. Kleine und grosse Landformen erzählen die Geschichte der Entstehung dieser Berglandschaften. Sie sind Zeugen eines dramatischen Klimawandels seit der letzten Eiszeit. Die Autoren haben vor allem kleine Landformen, wo Menschen, Tiere und Pflanzen leben untersucht, und sie erklären mit faszinierender Genauigkeit, wie diese entstanden sind. Im Buch werden auch starke Argumente für deren Schutz vorgebracht: Das Archiv zur Entstehung der Berglandschaften gilt es möglichst zu erhalten, auch in einer Zeit von schnellen Landnutzungsänderungen. Geodiversity - more precisely: the natural range of geomorphological features is the topic of this book. The geodiversity of Vorarlberg and Liechtenstein is high. Small and large landforms tell the story of the origin of the mountain landscapes, and are evidence of a dramatic change of climate since the last ice age. The authors focus on the small landforms - the places in which people, animals and plants live - and explain in fascinating detail how they were created. The book is a strong plea for their protection in a time of rapid land-use change in the mountains.
