Title: The "Chevalier" commercial, pictorial and tourist map of San Francisco : from latest U.S. gov. and official surveys (Raster Image)
Contributors:- Raster data
- 2015
Summary: This layer is a georeferenced image of a pictorial map of San Francisco originally created in 1903. This map shows contour lines and all important buildings and public improvements are drawn in vignettes on the map. At the bottom of the map is the publisher's statement: "This Map is an Improved and Enlarged Edition of The Commercial Pictorial and Tourist Map of San Francisco Copyrighted Dec. 1903 by August Chevalier. Similar Maps For Other Cities in the U.S. Are Being Made."The Exposition City 1915." The historic map layers in the Google Earth Rumsey Map Collection have been selected by David Rumsey from his large collection of historical maps, as well as some from other collections with which he collaborates. All the maps contain rich information about the past and represent a sampling of time periods, scales, and cartographic art, resulting in visual history stories that only old maps can tell. Each map has been georeferenced by Rumsey, thus creating unique digital map images that allow the old maps to appear in their correct places on the modern globe. Some of the maps fit perfectly in their modern spaces, while othersgenerally earlier period mapsreveal interesting geographical misconceptions of their time. Cultural features on the maps can be compared to the modern satellite views using the slider bars to adjust transparency. The result is an exploration of time as well as space, a marriage of historic cartographic masterpieces with innovative contemporary software tools.
