Stanford Geospatial CenterThis polygon shapefile is an index to the map series "[西伯利 / 極東 / 滿洲] 十万分一地誌圖 -- 1:100,000 Chishizu" (1942). Stanford University Libraries holds a large collection of Japanese military and imperial maps, referred to as gaihōzu, or "maps of outer lands." These maps were produced starting in the early Meiji (1868-1912) era and the end of World War II by the Land Survey Department of the General Staff Headquarters, the former Japanese Army. The Library is in the process of scanning and making available all of the maps in the collection.This layer provides an index map that can be used to locate individual scanned map sheets.Shapefilehttps://purl.stanford.edu/kt608jy2222engStanford Digital RepositoryPublicTopographic mapsIndex mapsGrids (Cartography)Military mapsMilitaryBoundaries1:100,000 Chishizu, Maps Index [西伯利 / 極東 / 滿洲] 十万分一地誌圖DatasetsRussian Far East (Russia)Manchuria1942Stanford
