We have failed to note
an important event: on 13th June this year,
Col Robert Bauer defended his PhD
thesis on the "Transformation method for points in a non-uniform
triangulation network into the uniform coordination system" (in Polish),
which allows accurate callibration of maps, including those by WIG, for
navigational (gps) purposes. Congratulations!
Mapster:
Because we’re rather busy at work, we’ve had to re-schedule map
updates. This time, we have added about 40 sheets to the German, WW1,
1:100,000 map of western Russia (Karte des westlichen Russlands):
H18, K28, K37, L25, O14, O16 -
O18, O35, P17, P19, P31, P32, P35 - P38, Q11, Q14 - Q16, Q36 - Q38,
R36, R37, R40, S36, S38, S41, T35 - T37, T39 - T41, U35 - U38, U40 i U41.
Some of them are different editions, e.g. 1914 and 1915, although no
apparent updates are visible. Most of them are courtesy of the
University of Berkeley library, and the Library of Congress, due to the
efforts of our collegues from www.easteurotopo.org, for which we are very
grateful indeed. Other sheets have been provided by private collectors.
Additionally, three German 1:100,000 (Grossblatt) sheets have been
added:
No 37, 67 and 317.
