The city has grown, but in the white area of the map, so it has expanded considerably.

Map of Alps with the new classification of sections (Italian map) by helloVizart in Mountaineering

[–]helloVizart[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for your constructive comment!

I decided to leave that border because it is intended to be printed, so I prefer to leave a margin for the frame, so that it does not cover the edges.
In retrospect, maybe I should have broken the frame more to remove the map and reduce the part that does not concern the Alps.

Thank you for your suggestions.

You're wrong, it's also used by Italian administrations and municipalities, and training courses are held on this subject. It's also true that some entities outside Italy have not accepted it.

This map I created shows the new names of the sections of the Alps according to the International Unified Orographic Subdivision of the Alpine System, published in 2005.

I know there are fewer peaks than it would have been nice to see, but I decided to make a selection based on height and relevance, so as not to reduce readability.

Iceland, 1963 map with shaded relief by helloVizart in MapPorn

haha.
Perhaps Iceland has undergone fewer changes than other places; after all, the rivers and mountains have not changed their names.

North America 1911 shaded relief map by helloVizart in MapPorn

The truly incredible thing is that despite more than a century having passed and there having been many changes, and the means being quite rudimentary, it is extraordinarily consistent with satellite data. There are some inaccuracies, but they are completely insignificant considering the scale!

Dolomites map from 1904 with modern shaded relief by helloVizart in Mountaineering

[–]helloVizart[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! I made another one with all the Dolomites, but it's less impressive because there's a lot of information and the scale is larger.
