An inset provides a road map of the city’s environs from Santa Barbara to San Diego.NEW STREET PLAN CARTOGRAPHY FROM RAND McNALLY: Rand McNally are currently changing the cartography of their street plans to a more ‘European” style. In many titles streets are now shown by parallel lines, providing a much clearer, easier to read presentation. Better use of colouring indicates different types of land use and/or institutions (parks, shopping centres, academic institutions, etc) and, in most titles, different administrative units. More streets are annotated with block numbers. Some new editions still retain the traditional American presentation of streets by a single line, but with more prominent marking for various institutions, facilities and places of interest. Our cartography sample indicates which style is used in this title.COVERAGE: Rand McNally street plans cover cities with their outer suburbs, prominently highlighting principal traffic arteries and connecting main streets. Railway and subway stations are marked.
