A Detailed Commercial Map of the Russian-American Company
Subject
The topic of the resource
Otchetʺ Rossiĭsko - Amerikanskoĭ kompanii za 1859 god".
Description
An account of the resource
This map from just before the sale of Alaska by the Russian Empire to the United States of America gives a clear image of the North American territory held by Russia. The fact that this map was created by the Russian-American Company indicates the importance maritime trade and commerce played in the mapping of this region, as well as the considerable effort made to create far more detailed maps of the coastal areas, though the interior and northern regions remain largely uncharted.

A Proposed Overland Telegraph from the United States to the Russian Empire
Subject
The topic of the resource
P. McD. Collins' Proposed Overland Telegraph via Behrings Strait and Asiatic Russia to Europe, Under Russian & British Grants.
Description
An account of the resource
In order to avoid the costs and difficulties of laying a telegraph line across the vast Pacific Ocean, Perry McDonough Collins suggested constructing this overland telegraph line, traversing the Bering Strait. Though this line was never completed, due to the successful completion of an underwater cable by a competitor, the expeditions sent to chart the still largely unknown region of Alaska provided valuable information for further exploration.

The Crimea. Chiefly from Surveys made by the order of the Russian Government
Description
An account of the resource
This map is important because it shows the connections between port cities on the Tauric Peninsula and their hinterlands. This map shows Sevsatopol in a larger context, which hints at the reasons for its strategic location as a naval port on the Black Sea, and the difficulties this city would face as a trading port with mountain ranges complicating overland routes. Importantly, this map shows the Lozovaya-Sevastopol line which was completed in 1875, finally connecting Sevastopol to productive hinterlands.

Description
An account of the resource
This map shows the northeastern section of the Russian Empire in considerable detail, in great contrast with what was known (and yet unknown) about the northwest coast of North America. This map, based on the Second Kamchatka Expedition led by Vitus Bering, more accurately depicts the Aleutian Islands than in previous maps, but still treats the mainland of North America as a largely unknown and uncharted entity.

Transportation Map Of The Russian Empire
Description
An account of the resource
This map from 1854 places Nizhni-Novgorod in context of the transportation system (rail and road) of the Russian Empire as a whole. It shows its geographical significance as a major transportation hub within the Empire by receiving its own inset, 1 of only 6 represented. Interestingly, the legend to the right explains that the roads are classified into three categories: major post (highways), regional, and rural (dirt).

A Three-Dimensional Rendering of the Geography of Sevastopol
Subject
The topic of the resource
(Third Edition) Stanford's Bird's-Eye View of the Seat of War in the Crimea
Description
An account of the resource
This map is significant for its rendering of topographic information that allows the viewer to understand the city of Sevastopol in its geographic context. It informs you of the scale of the cliffs and the walled nature of the bays with artistic depictions that provide a different emphasis than that which can be conveyed through a top-down view provided with hachures and 2-dimensional graphics. The unique horizon-oriented ariel angle of the map also serves to show Sevastopol in a broader context, including coasts and mountains north of the city.
