I am collecting anecdotal examples of how the most popular USGS, NGA, NOS,
etc. maps and charts are used by our crowd, map librarians, with the great
public out there.

Any stories?


For example, architectural students using ONCs, etc. of the Diomedes
[islands in Bering Strait] as part of an architectural design competition.

There must be others out there. Many thanks in advance for your thoughts,
contributions.
