    <abstract displayLabel="Abstract">This layer is a georeferenced raster image of an historic continental map of Africa from 1829, originally created by Edme Mentelle. All map collar and inset information is also available as part of the raster image, including any inset maps, profiles, statistical tables, directories, text, illustrations, or other information associated with the principal map. This map was scanned and georeferenced by the Stanford University Geospatial Center using a Bonne projection. This map is part of a selection of digitally scanned and georeferenced historic maps of Africa from the Oscar I. Norwich Collection at Stanford University.</abstract>
    <note displayLabel="Purpose" type="other">This historic paper map provides an historical perspective of the cultural and physical landscape during this time period. The wide range of information provided on these maps make them useful in the study of historic geography. As this map has been georeferenced, it also can be used as a background layer in conjunction with other GIS data.</note>
    <note displayLabel="Supplemental information" type="other">The Oscar I. Norwich Collection consists of over 300 maps published from the 15th to the early 20th century. More information about this collection can be accessed here: http://purl.stanford.edu/qb438pg7646.
