Maps topics include topography, geology, soils, climate, forests, agriculture, water, minerals, economics, transportation, communication and history. Maps also show cities, railways, bodies of water, drainage, coastlines and islands. Some maps employ data visualization to convey information, such as on light houses and the illumination they produce. For related item in collection - the next edition of the atlas, published in 1910 - see Pub List No. 14367.000. According to the preface from the 1910 edition, the volume was published because the 1899 edition "was so well received by the public in its own country and among the representatives of geographical science that continuing to work in the same direction appeared to the Society as an inalienable duty."
