An atlas is a collection of maps; it is typically a map of Earth or a region of Earth, but there are atlases of the other planets (and their satellites) in the Solar System. Furthermore, atlases of anatomy exist, mapping out the human body or other organisms. Atlases have traditionally been bound into book form, but today many atlases are in multimedia formats. In addition to presenting geographic features and political boundaries, many atlases often feature geopolitical, social, religious and economic statistics. They also have information about the map and places in it.
The word atlas dates from 1636, first in reference to the English translation of Atlas, sive cosmographicae meditationes de fabrica mundi (1585) by Flemish geographer Gerhardus Mercator, who might have been the first to use this word in this way. A picture of the Titan Atlas holding up the world appeared on the frontispiece of this and other early map collections.
The first work that contained systematically arranged woodcut maps of uniform size, intended to be published in a book, thus representing the first modern atlas, was De Summa totius Orbis (1524–26) by the 16th-century Italian cartographer Pietro Coppo. Nonetheless, this distinction is conventionally awarded to the Flemish cartographer Abraham Ortelius who in 1570 published the collection of maps Theatrum Orbis Terrarum.

The 2nd Wisconsin Breeding Bird Atlas Project Speakers: Mike Reese and Bill Mueller Project Coordinators Bill Mueller and Mike Reese teamed up to present an update on the “2nd Wisconsin Breeding Bird Atlas Project” at the Aldo Leopold Audubon Society’s program on Wednesday, November 18th, 2015 at the Lincoln Center, 1519 Water Street in Stevens Point. The original Wisconsin Breeding Bird Atlas, published in 2006 by the Wisconsin Society for Ornithology, is a 600-page volume that documents the distribution and abundance of birds breeding in the state. Earlier this year, field work and data collection commenced for the Atlas 2 project, which will provide insight regarding changes in bird populations since the original survey and help identify conservation needs of breeding birds.

Gênero: Aventura, Fantasia e Suspense. No início do século 18, o cartógrafo Jonathan Green empreende uma viagem científica da Europa para o Oriente. Passando por Transilvânia e cruzando as montanhas dos Cárpatos, ele se encontra em uma pequena vila perdida na floresta. Somente o acaso e o nevoeiro pesado poderia levá-lo a este lugar amaldiçoado. As pessoas que vivem aqui não se parecem com qualquer outro povo que o viajante viu antes. Os aldeões, tendo cavado um fosso profundo para afastar-se do resto do mundo, compartilham uma crença ingênua de que eles poderiam salvar-se do mal, não compreendem que o mal tem feito seu ninho em sua alma e está à espera de uma oportunidade para jorrar-se sobre o mundo.
Eagle-Lion released this little film noir gem in May 1948 and Gaumont -Eagle Lion released it in France in 1949, and runs 79 minutes in black and white. Britain really caught the film noir bug, producing many seldom seen gems like this. Eagle bought the old PRC poverty row studio ( Formerly Grand National Pictures ), where this was made, and was producing American "B" movies to accompany their British releases here, and increase the draw. The great Anthony Mann directs this taut thriller with a cast including Dennis O'Keefe, Clair Trevor, Marsha Hunt, John Ireland, Raymond Burr, Curt Conway, Regis Toomey, and Whit Bissell. Inmate Joe Sullivan ( O'Keefe ) crashes out of prison with the help of his moll, Pat ( Trevor ). Unbeknownst to the pair, they have been set up by Rick Coyle ( Burr ), ...
