Title:

Basemap: Tavrida in 1792

Description:

This is the georeferenced image of Vil'brekht's Map of Tavrida (1792).
 
As you can see in the attached images, the map overlays well on modern satellite imagery. The fit is less accurate along more complex stretches of coastline, such as that near Perekop, but we can generally live with that.
