  1. Map of South Africa illustrating Dr. Livingstone's Discoveries (Raster Image)

    Pepper, W., active 1858
    Stanford, California, US : Stanford Digital Repository, 2013

    This layer is a georeferenced image of an historic regional map of Southern Africa originally created by W. Pepper in 1858. The map illustratates the exploration routes of Dr. David Livingstone's journeys throughout Southern Africa. 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 was scanned and georeferenced by the Stanford University Geospatial Center. This map is part of a selection of digitally scanned and georeferenced historic maps of Africa held at Stanford University Libraries.This historic paper map provides an historical perspective of the cultural and physical landscape during this time period. The wide range of information provided on these maps make them useful in the study of historic geography. As this map has been georeferenced, it also can be used as a background layer in conjunction with other GIS data.

    Swanston, George H.
    Stanford, California, US : Stanford Digital Repository, 2013

    This layer is a georeferenced raster image of an historic continental map of Africa created in 1860. Originally created by George Swanton, this map is based on the explorations of Livingstone and Barth and contains insets of Cape Verde Islands, the Delta of the Niger, Cape Colony and Mauritius. 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 was scanned and georeferenced by the Stanford University Geospatial Center using a Sinusoidal projection.
