Atlas des anciens plans de Paris - Sebastian Münster, Paris en 1530 - David Rumsey

Paris, France, 1550

Map of of Princeton drawn by Jacob Riegel, Jr., Class of 1912, ca. 1932. Though depicting buildings as three dimensional, they are scaled for the two-dimensional map and accurately placed. The cartoons represent inside jokes for Princetonians, including workmen being perplexed about where the front of the McCosh infirmary is, a stream of students headed to the train station for weekend travel, Alexander Hamilton facing off against a British musketeer, and numerous squirrels, among others.

Riegel was known for maps in this style. He also drew similar depictions of various other locations.

To find the map in full resolution, please view it on the Princeton University Library Catalog.

Visualizando la "lógica oculta" de las ciudades

Este estudio funciona mediante el uso de la se supone es una vieja técnica de geografía: el gráfico "polar" o histograma polar (también conocido como diagrama de rosas)

La herramienta de Geoff Boeing calcula qué porcentaje de las carreteras de una ciudad corre a lo largo de cada sección de una brújula, y lo traza en un gráfico circular de barras.
