Cartography Sites

National Geographic - Probably the best mapmakers in the United States. Click here to access their printable maps. Just click to a state, province, country, or continent; choose your settings; and print away! (Crisp and clear, these page-size maps were designed for printing and copying.) Or grab a map to share online.

Terraserver - Microsoft's map server. Somewhat limited coverage, but continually growing.

United States Geological Survey (USGS)- Need a topo-map to go hiking? You can find it with the USGS.

Cartographic Images - An excellent antique map site.

Mercator's World - THE magazine for the true cartophile.

The History of Cartography - Is a research, editorial, and publishing venture drawing international attention to the history of maps and mapping. The Project's major work is the multi-volume History of Cartography series. Its interdisciplinary approach brings together scholars in the arts, sciences, and humanities. By considering previously ignored aspects of cartographic history, the Project encourages a broader view of maps that has significantly influenced other fields of study.
