Note:
The General Map of the Republic of Nicaragua. Published by Broise et Tiheffry, Paris. Map shows rivers, mines, ruins, international boundaries with Honduras and Costa Rica, departmental boundaries, roads, planned railways, Indian settlements, canals and the Atlantic and Pacific oceans. Relief shown by hachures and form lines. Includes legend, 3 inset maps and 13 cross sections, four cross sections showing the heights of mountains and volcanoes. Maximilian von Sonnenstern was a civil engineer of German origin who worked for many years for the government of Nicaragua and made detailed studies of the country. The General Map of the Republic of Nicaragua, created by order of the Nicaraguan government, is the first official map of that country on a systematic trigonometric survey, and it served as authoritative map of Nicaragua from 1863-1898. Sonnenstern published an earlier map of Nicaragua in 1859 at a smaller scale and size, and with much less detail overall.
