Date: Tue, 8 Nov 2005 From: Kathryn Lage <[log in to unmask]> Reply-To: <[log in to unmask]> Organization: University of Colorado To: 'Maps, Air Photo & Geospatial Systems Forum' <[log in to unmask]> Hi all, I have a patron looking for information about the use of TPCs as base maps in cartography. Her question is below. Any suggestions on where to research this would be much appreciated! "I'm trying to find information on whether tactical pilotage charts might be commonly used by commercial/tourist map makers as a base for their maps. In particular, I'm trying to trace the lineage of a feature (an extension of the Kashmiri line of control that wasn't based on the relevant treaty text) printed on a 1967 TPC that showed up in tourist/trekking maps in the late 1970s." -Katie Katie Lage Map Librarian University of Colorado at Boulder Jerry Crail Johnson Earth Sciences & Map Library 184 UCB Boulder, CO 80309 Phone: 303-735-4917 FAX: 303-735-4879 http://ucblibraries.colorado.edu/map/ --
