Description:

This polygon shapefile is an index to the map series, '鎮海湾要塞加徳方面一万分一圖 -- Chinkaiwan Yōsai Katoku hōmen 1:10,000' (1905, 1947). 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. This layer provides an index map that can be used to locate individual scanned map sheets.
