Title: United States of America by Bradford Scott 1816 (Raster Image)
- Raster data
- 2015
- Not owned by MIT (Owned by Stanford)
Summary: This layer is a georeferenced image of a map of the United States in 1816. The original map appears in "North America; United States of America By Bradford Scott. 1816; South America, By Bradford Scott. 1816." 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.

Summary: This layer is a georeferenced raster image of the historic paper map entitled: Map of the State of Rhode Island and Providence Plantations : from surveys, under the direction of Henry F. Walling, civil engineer. It was published in 1855 by L.H. Bradford & Co.'s Lith. Scale 1:63,360. The image inside the map neatline is georeferenced to the surface of the earth and fit to the Rhode Island State Plane Coordinate System (Feet) (FIPS 3800). 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, or other information associated with the principal map. This map shows features such as roads, railroads, drainage, public buildings, schools, churches, cemeteries, industry locations (e.g. mills, factories, mines, etc.), private buildings with names of property owners, town and county boundaries and more. Relief shown by hachures. Depths shown by soundings. Includes insets: Woonsocket -- Pawtucket -- Warren -- Bristol -- Westerly Village -- Block Island -- Greenwich -- City of Newport -- City of Providence. Also includes tables of statistics and note. This layer is part of a selection of digitally scanned and georeferenced historic maps of New England from the Harvard Map Collection. These maps typically portray both natural and manmade features. The selection represents a range of regions, originators, ground condition dates, scales, and map purposes.

Summary: This layer is a georeferenced raster image of the historic paper map entitled: A plan of the city of New York from an actual survey, made by James Lyne. It was reproduced by Henry Dunreath Tyler ca. 1890. Scale [ca. 1:3,200]. Covers lower Manhattan below Worth St. Facsimile of an original map made in 1728 appearing in various eds. of Valentine's Manual of New York. The image inside the map neatline is georeferenced to the surface of the earth and fit to the Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) Zone 18N NAD83 projection. 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, drainage, selected public buildings (churches, markets, etc.), city wards, wharves, and more. Relief is shown by hachures. Includes index to points of interest. This layer is part of a selection of digitally scanned and georeferenced historic maps from The Harvard Map Collection as part of the Imaging the Urban Environment project. Maps selected for this project represent major urban areas and cities of the world, at various time periods. These maps typically portray both natural and manmade features at a large scale. The selection represents a range of regions, originators, ground condition dates, scales, and purposes.
