His five seasons in Newfoundland produced the first large-scale and accurate maps of the island's coasts ; they also gave Cook his mastery of practical surveying, achieved under often adverse conditions, and brought him to the attention of the Admiralty and Royal Society at a crucial moment both in his career and in the direction of British overseas discovery.

The original maps were often city maps with the lines superimposed, but as well as being visually complex, this produced problems of space, as central stations were far closer together than outlying ones.

Examples of large scale maps are the 1: 25, 000 maps produced for hikers ; on the other hand maps intended for motorists at 1: 250, 000 or 1: 1, 000, 000 are small scale.

Generally the maps produced in this add-on were considerably harder than the original game's maps due to tricks that Tom & Joe had learned in the editor since the release of the original.

This approach is similar to that of electrical circuit diagrams ; while these were not the inspiration for Beck's maps, his colleagues pointed out the similarities and he once produced a joke map with the stations replaced by electrical circuit symbols and names, with terminology such as " bakelite " for the Bakerloo line.

The animated portions of the films were produced by the Disney studios – with the animated maps following a convention of depicting Axis-occupied territory in black.

He produced his own atlas in a number of parts, the first of which was published in 1578 and consisted of corrected versions of the maps of Ptolemy ( though introducing a number of new errors ).

In fact, the maps between 1: 5, 000 and 1: 100, 000 are produced and published by the land surveying offices of each federal state, the maps between 1: 200, 000 and 1: 1, 000, 000 by a federal office – the Bundesamt für Kartographie und Geodäsie ( BKG ) in Frankfurt am Main.

Now ( June 2011 ) civilian maps are produced by the Federal agency for geodesy and cartography ().

Older methods of generating DEMs often involve interpolating digital contour maps that may have been produced by direct survey of the land surface, this method is still used in mountain areas, where interferometry is not always satisfactory.

The earliest scientific surveys in France were called the Cassini maps after the family who produced them over four generations.

Bornholm Regional Municipality was not merged with other municipalities on 1 January 2007 as the result of the nationwide Kommunalreformen (" The Municipal Reform " of 2007 ), which is quite understandable, since the island, as can be seen on maps, is quite far from the rest of Denmark.

Here, is a function that maps an argument y to result z.

This was rigorously proved and extended by Vladimir Arnold ( in 1963 for analytic Hamiltonian systems ) and Jürgen Moser ( in 1962 for smooth twist maps ), and the general result is known as the KAM theorem.

As a result, it always maps straight lines to straight lines or to a single point.

As a result, players are provided with a variety of resources to assist in turn planning, including game aids, maps, and results from previous turns.

Its extent varied in places as a result of subsequent improvements to the fortifications and is depicted differently on the various maps.

Satellite pictures used in conjunction with the cloud symbols plotted on weather maps provide the forecaster with important information about conditions within the troposphere and the weather systems that form as a result.

As a result, many 17th century maps showed a rather strangely shaped Sakhalin, which included only the northern half of the island ( with Cape Patience ), while Cape Aniva discovered by de Vries and the " Black Cape " ( Cape Crillon ) were thought to be part of the mainland.

Much of his work on stratified sets was developed so as to understand the notion of topologically stable maps, and to eventually prove the result that the set of topologically stable mappings between two smooth manifolds is a dense set.

As a result, most image maps coded by hand are simple polygons.

As a result, the international name of the sea changed from no name to the Sea of Japan, on the maps drawn by countries other than Japan or Korea during the 17th to 20th centuries.

Albert is shown looking south, towards the Royal Albert Hall from which the architectural form of the memorial as a whole should not be considered as being intentionally isolated, it having a particular connection as a result of the location, relating to the ' World's Fair ' in which the Prince was directly involved and as shown in the contemporary maps of the Ordnance Survey, including in particular the still continuing element known as the ' Battle of the Scales ' ( metric and imperialist scales ), there being a further statue of the Prince at the south side of the Royal Albert Hall.

As a result, the team ran into problems because the scenario and the maps had to be reworked constantly to make all the modifications match.

As a result, the entire service between Ōmiya and Ōfuna is typically referred to as the on system maps and in-train station guides.

This ordering ensures that no time is used drawing objects that are not visible and as a result maps can become very large without any speed penalty.

This variant was employed as a result of the 2006 decision by The U. S. Board of Geographic Names to allow " Rhode Island " and " Aquidneck Island " to co-exist on nautical maps.

In 2011, she was commissioned to design the front cover of millions of pocket London Underground maps ; the result is entitled Polka Dots Festival in London ( 2011 ).

They include coastal county maps, shaded to identify the minimum SSHS category of hurricane that will result in flooding, in each area of the county.

This result similarly maps onto networks with a power-law degree distribution, such as scale-free networks.

The primary goal of the voyage was to further support the anthropological theory of the Asiatic origin of native Oceanic people ( Oceania maps: detail, region ), of Polynesians and Hawaiians in particular, as the result of purposeful trips through the Pacific, as opposed to passive drifting on currents, or sailing from the Americas.

As a result, algorithms that create topological maps are not referred to as SLAM.

As a result, fans that bought the original edition were left with " incomplete " Risk maps and would have to buy an entirely new game if they wanted the " full " version, although Hasbro did offer them an add on for a fee.

An important practical example is the residue theorem of complex analysis, where " closed curves " are continuous maps from the circle into the complex plane, and where two closed curves produce the same integral result if they are homotopic in the topological space consisting of the plane minus the points of singularity.

Historically a part of Lancashire, and formerly a part of the township of Newton Heath, Miles Platting began to appear on maps in the 1820s, when it had begun to expand into a factory district as a result of the Industrial Revolution.
