Just a couple of brief new additions to the NLS Map Images website:

1. Ordnance Survey One-inch to the mile maps of Scotland, 2nd Edition (Hills), 1885-1903

        A set of 131 sheets with relief shown by brown hachures

        Individual sheets:    http://maps.nls.uk/os/one-inch-2nd-hills/index.html
        Georeferenced mosaic: http://maps.nls.uk/openlayers.cfm?m=1&id=167


2. New "Side by side" viewer for  Exploring Georeferenced Maps

This allows an easy way of comparing different scales and dates of historical georeferenced mapping on screen at the same time.

        Side-by-side viewer: http://maps.nls.uk/geo/explore/sidebyside.cfm

The Side by Side Viewer is accessible directly from the Explore Georeferenced Maps viewer: http://maps.nls.uk/geo/explore
