Title
Digital Sanborn Maps (Black & White) [All States] {1867-1970}
Description
ProQuest Digital Sanborn® Maps (1867–1970) is a subscription-based web application providing online access to digitized Sanborn fire insurance maps for more than 12,000 U.S. towns and cities. Access is restricted to authorized users and requires authentication through a subscribing institution. The platform delivers high-resolution, black-and-white digital scans derived from Library of Congress microfilm editions of the Sanborn Map Company’s printed volumes. Users can search by state, city, and date, browse available volumes, zoom and pan within sheets, and download map images (subject to licensing terms)., Sanborn maps were originally created for the fire insurance industry and depict detailed building-level information, including footprint outlines, construction materials, number of stories, building use, street names, property boundaries, block numbers, and other infrastructure features. Coverage varies by location and year. While many maps are in the public domain, some later sheets may remain under copyright; use and reproduction are governed by ProQuest’s licensing agreement and applicable copyright law.
