Scotland Declares War on ‘Lazy Mapping Practice’

The new law enforced in Scotland this month imposes strict rules on how government mapmakers can attract the Shetland Islands.

It is easy to explain the impact of mapping requirements on Scottish maps. Below I explain the regional population density of Scotland and the handling of Shetland Islands in two ways. The left side is a traditional map that places the Shetland Islands in a box near the mainland of Scotland. The same data was plotted on the right side, but the Shetland Islands were placed in a natural place about 100 miles away from the mainland. Assuming that the vertical space is the main limit of the final size of the map of the wider country, both maps are scaled to the same size in the vertical direction. The traditional map of the illustration is very big and can provide more details. Meanwhile, the new map function defined by the government includes a wide blank area in the northern continent and the western Shetland islands.

Volume 6 - Scotland and Ireland. This volume contains 49 Scotland maps, 6 Ireland maps, and 170 page descriptions originally published in 1654 as Blaeu's Atlas novus Volume 5. These maps are complemented primarily by Timothy Pont's work (about 1583-1614) by Storake's Robert Gordon and his son James Gordon (about 1636-1652) of Rostom. The website of Scottish Blaeu atlas (1654) has a complete map and text fax, a translation of a large amount of text into English, detailed accompanying articles, and a place name dictionary of names in place names and texts. The following article also contains a map of Blaeu of Atla Novus and Atlas Maior and detailed information on the history of death from Pont to 1654.
