    Summary: This layer is a georeferenced raster image of the historic paper map entitled: Plan geometral de la ville de Dijon : leve en 1759 par les ordres de M.M. les Elus Generaux de Bourgogne, et de M.M. les Maire et Echevins de la dite ville par le Sr. Mikel, Ingenieur Geographe du Roy ; et les vue et ornemens, dessines par le Sr. Jolivet, Architecte... ; grave a Paris par Jean Lattre. It was published by Jean Lattre, rue St. Jacques a la ville de Bordeaux in 1761. Scale [ca. 1:2,800]. Covers Dijon, France. This layer is image 1 of 2 total images of the two sheet source map, representing the southwest portion of the map. Map in French. The image inside the map neatline is georeferenced to the surface of the earth and fit to the European Datum 1950, Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) Zone 31N projected coordinate system. 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, built-up areas and selected buildings, fortification, parks, cemeteries, ground cover, and more. Includes 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.

  4. Title: Border Crossings, Syria, March 2014

    Contributors:

    Summary: This point shapefile contains verified data about the geographic location (point geometry) and name of border crossings for Syria. These data have been compiled by the U.S. Department of State, Humanitarian Information Unit (INR/GGI/HIU), Each attribute in the dataset is verified against multiple sources. Locations are only accurate down to the city level. The data contained herein is entirely unclassified and is current as of 12 March 2014. The data is updated as needed. This file is compiled by the U.S. Department of State, Humanitarian Information Unit (INR/GGI/HIU) and is used in the production of several Syria related maps including the unclassified "Syria: Numbers and Locations of Syrian Refugees" product.

  5. Title: Detailed World Polygons (LSIB), Africa, 2013

    Contributors:

    Summary: This polygon shapefile contains the boundaries of countries in Africa. This layer, created by the Office of the Geographer, combines two data sets: Large Scale International Boundary Lines (LSIB) and World Vector Shorelines (LSIB-WVS). The lines reflect U.S. government (USG) policy and thus not necessarily de facto control. The 1:250,000 scale WVS coastline data from the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA) is generally shifted by several hundred meters to over a km. The LSIB is in WGS84 datum and is generally accurate to within a couple hundred meters or better. The boundary research and “recovery” of the delineation of the line has been done over past decades by geographers at State and colleagues from other USG agencies and the UK. It is based on modern imagery, elevation data, relevant maps, treaties, international arbitration and court rulings, data from national mapping agencies and boundary commissions if available, and other sources. The mission of the Humanitarian Information Unit (HIU) is to serve as a U.S. Government interagency center to identify, collect, analyze, and disseminate all-source information critical to U.S. Government decision-makers and partners in preparation for and response to humanitarian emergencies worldwide, and to promote innovative technologies and best practices for humanitarian information management.

Available at: http://purl.stanford.edu/cq068zf3261. The LSIB and WVS files were combined using ESRI's ArcGIS 10.0 lines to polygon tool. In the cases where the LSIB did not extend enough to touch the shoreline, the WVS shoreline was moved inland until it met the LSIB. In the cases where the LSIB border extended past the shoreline, the shoreline was moved outward until it met the boundary. No boundary line was moved for the production of these polygons. The polygons were then topologically corrected to the best of our ability and had corresponding country attributes attached.

  12. Title: Large Scale International Boundaries (LSIB), Africa and the Americas, 2012

    Contributors:

    Summary: This line shapefile contains country boundaries for Africa and American continents. Large Scale International Boundaries (LSIB) are created and maintained by the Department of State's Office of the Geographer. The lines reflect U.S. government (USG) policy and thus not necessarily de facto control. The LSIB has no known errors in boundary location of over 4 km, and is generally accurate to within a kilometer or less. The boundary line depiction research (“recovery” of the authoritative location of the line) has been done over the past decade or so by geographers at State and colleagues from other agencies, and is based on modern imagery, elevation data, relevant maps, treaties, international arbitration and court rulings, and other sources. The LSIB is believed to be the most accurate worldwide (non-Europe, non-US) international boundary vector line file available. The LSIB is frequently updated.

  15. Title: United States of America by Bradford Scott 1816 (Raster Image)

    Contributors:

    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.
