Comparing digital map images: Tips and Tricks
---------------------------------------------
At the meeting of the International Society of Curators of Early
Maps (ISCEM) in Athens recently we had a discussion about map
images on the Web. This related to a thread that had run on
MapHist at the beginning of the year.
One of the issues that came up was the ability to compare images
retrieved via the Web, with other Web images or with those already
stored. I suggested to Patricia Alkhoven, who made these
observations, that it might be of general interest if her 'Tips and
Tricks' were made available to all.
This has now happened. I am most grateful to Patricia for
supplying the text and letting me mount it on the 'Map History /
History of Cartography' web-page. You will find it at:
http://ihr.sas.ac.uk/maps/imagetips.html
where it forms part of the 'Internet Resources' section.
Comments or queries to the author, please (not me!):

or at least copies to her, if you want to post to the list in
general.
