His schematic pocket maps for the London underground are also important as precursors of Harry Beck's fully developed diagrammatic London underground maps starting in 1933. His 1915 London Underground map is considered one of the most important 20th century pictorial maps which established a distinctive pictorial style.

MacDonald Gill was an important British artist who created many kinds of illustrations, as well as maps. Pictorial Maps by MacDonald Gill, 1915 to 1947 View All Pictorial Maps in the Collection, Including New Additions For more information on pictorial maps, see writings of Elisabeth Burdon, George Glazer, Roderick Barron, Wikipedia, and Library of Congress. A group of original pictorial map catalogs is also included. Farrow, Richard Edes Harrison, Alva Scott Garfield, Elizabeth Shurtleff, Tony Sarg, Louise Jefferson, Harrison Godwin, and Courtland Smith. Highlights in this addition are pictorial maps by MacDonald Gill, Ernest Dudley Chase, Ashburton Tripp, Jo Mora, Ruth Taylor White, Lucien Boucher, Gerald Eddy, Miguel Covarrubias, Heinrich Berann, Ernest Clegg, Karl Smith, Edwin Olsen, Stanley Turner, Coulton Waugh, Everett Henry, Lindgren Brothers, Don Bloodgood, Colortext Corp, Frank Dorn, C.V. Some of the more prolific or exceptional pictorial map makers are detailed below. We are broad in our definition of pictorial maps, and include in that category certain panoramic and birds-eye maps, diagrammatic maps, and timelines.
Pictorial map update#
We will be continuing to add more pictorial maps to the collection, and this link will automatically update with the new maps. While they seem to have peaked in popularity in the 1920 to 1940 period, they have antecedents in the 19th and earlier centuries and the form continues today. Pictorial maps are generally described as maps that employ various kinds of illustrations, images, and text that enhance the cartographic message. Over 2,000 Pictorial maps and related images have been added to the David Rumsey Map Collection in the form of separate maps, pocket maps, case maps, atlases, manuscript maps, and wall maps.

Research outcomes are relevant for trawling map images on the Internet and for enhancing the advanced search of digital map catalogues.Over 2,000 Pictorial Maps in Online Collection A resulting average precision of 32% was obtained for Faster R-CNN and of 36% for RetinaNet. Faster R-CNN and RetinaNet were compared to determine the box coordinates, while adjusting anchor scales and examining configurations for small objects. For a third experiment, bounding boxes of 3200 sailing ships were annotated in historic maps from different digital libraries. Results showed that the accuracy is 95–97% to distinguish maps from other images, whereas maps with pictorial objects are correctly classified at rates of 87–92%. While alternating image input options, two binary classifiers based on Xception and InceptionResNetV2 were trained to separate maps and pictorial maps. For the first two experiments, 6200 images were retrieved from Pinterest. In this work, realistically drawn objects are identified on digital maps by convolutional neural networks.
