  14. Title: Mapping Interstate Territorial Conflict, 1947-2000 (v2)

    Contributors:

    Summary: This polygon shapefile represents areas that were the subject of interstate territorial disputes between 1947 and 2000. The disputed areas referenced in this map were identified in 'The Democratic Peace and Territorial Conflict in the Twentieth Century' (Huth and Allee, 2002.) Each disputed region is rendered as a polygon encompassing the area of overlapping claims. Each region has a variable 'homeland,' indicating whether the area was ever part of a dispute involving homeland territory for both states. Each dispute is also assigned a precision code, from 1 to 5, where 1 represents the highest level of certainty and 5 represents the lowest level. The vast majority of claims represented in this dataset were bounded with relatively high precision. Research related to these data is described in 'Mapping Interstate Territorial Conflict: A New Data Set and Application.' An earlier version of this shapefile and other related information including annual data for dyads and direct dyads involved in disputes, as well as a file of the territorial disputes identified by Huth and Allee, can be found at: http://purl.stanford.edu/zc000fq4044.

  15. Title: Public Transit Map, Massachusetts, ca. 2000 (Raster Image)

    Contributors:

    Summary: This layer is a georeferenced raster image of the historic paper map entitled: Official public transit map :[Boston and vicinity, Massachusetts] : Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority / this map was prepared for the MBTA by the Central Transportation Planning Staff ; cartography by Kenneth A. Dumas, CTPS ; production by Transportation Creative Services. It was published by Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority ca. 2000. Scale 1:21,120. 1 in. = 1/3 of a mile. The image inside the map neatline is georeferenced to the surface of the earth and fit to the Massachusetts State Plane Coordinate System, Mainland Zone (in Feet) (Fipszone 2001). All map collar and inset information is also available as part of the raster image, including any inset maps, profiles, statistical tables, directories, text, illustrations, index maps, legends, or other information associated with the principal map. This map shows features such as roads, railroads, drainage, cities and other human settlements, territorial boundaries, shoreline features, and more. Includes also general information on bus, subway, rail, and boat transportation, service frequencies in minutes for bus routes and subway lines, inset of 'MBTA commuter rail system,' inset showing transportational services for Lynn, Salem, Beverly, and vicinity, 18 insets showing transportational services for locales at or near stations, advertisement, manuscript annotations and color illustrations. This layer is part of a selection of digitally scanned and georeferenced historic maps from the Harvard Map Collection. These maps typically portray both natural and manmade features. The selection represents a range of originators, ground condition dates, scales, and map purposes.

    Contributors:

    Summary: World map on an oval projection. Relief shown pictorially. Includes ancillary maps of the two polar hemispheres and and a twin-hemispherical world map. Includes 10 astronomical diagrams: Ptolemy's system -- Copernic system -- Tycho's system -- The face of the sun / by Fa. Kircher -- Saturn / by Mr. Hook -- Mars / by Cassini -- Jupiter / by Mr. Hook -- The face of the moon -- The sun enlightening the earth -- The sun enlightening the moon, the moon enlightening the earth. Above neat line of map: This projection by equidistant meridians & parallels shews the naturall bearing, distance & proportion of countryes more exactly then that wherein ye distance of the meridians & parallels differ as they do in the stereographick projections, as may be seen above by the two smaller hemispheres.
