Description:

This polygon shapefile is an index to the map series, '五万分一北支那空中寫眞測量要圖山西省髙平縣翼城縣間 -- 1:50,000 Kitashina kūchū shashin sokuryō yōzu' (1940). 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.
