Digital Schmettausches Kartewerk Brandenburg
Description
The topographical images of this map for the then Prussian territory east of the Weser in scale 1: Between 1767 and 1787, 50 000 were carried out by Friedrich Wilhelm Karl Graf von Schmettau. However, the Prussian officer and cartographer prepared the work against the concerns of Frederick II in consultation with the then Crown Prince Friedrich Wilhelm II on his own initiative and with the support of the Minister Friedrich Wilhelm Graf von der Schulenburg-Kehnert. According to sources, scope and content, the work forms the culmination of pre-official Prussian cartography. The individual sheets were hand-drawn unique and not intended for publication. The originals of the 270 sections are in the possession of the Staatsbibliothek zu Berlin — Prussian Cultural Heritage. With the Digital Schmettauschen cards, the sections of today’s Brandenburg region are georeferenced and available as grid data without leaf cuts. The data is provided free of charge via automated procedures or by self-collection. When using the data, the license conditions must be observed.
