New Jersey State Atlas Sheets 1-20

Abstract

New Jersey State Atlas Sheets were completed by Topographic Engineer C.C. Vermeule from c. 1784 to 1887 at a scale of 1 to 21,120 (3 inches = 1 mile). These historical Atlas Sheets, in Adobe™ PDF format are the originals of Vemuele's work and comprise the first sets of seventeen Atlas Sheets including overlapping (Nos. 1-17 from 1885-1902) at a scale of 1 to 63,360 (1 inch = 1 mile). Also included are three statewide maps numbered 18, 19 and 20, and an index map. For conservation purposes, Atlas Sheets were encapsulated in archival mylar. After encapsulation, each map was scanned in TIFF format at 300 dpi as RGB datatype. The TIFF images were then converted to an Adobe™ PDF document to include all of the image features within and outside the New Jersey State boundaries. The PDF images can be viewed by clicking on the list below for Atlas Sheets 1-20.
