The Perry Castaneda Map Library at the University of Texas at Austin is an archives containing historical and present-day maps of regions around the world. The site archives older versions of CIA world maps, which cannot be found elsewhere on the internet. The collection not only contains maps of topography and location information, but also many thematic maps of current political, economic and epidemiological interest. Using the Map Collection is a great way to visualize complex information and trends in a quick snapshot.
