Dear All:
I have uploaded a series of high-resolution scanned maps and satellite imagery of Mumbai City, Suburbs, and the Metropolitan Region, in the spirit of open geo-data. These are free for viewing, downloading, and sharing.
This archive contains the Bombay City Guide series conducted by the Survey of India from 1929-69, which I obtained in the University of Chicago Library a few years ago, along with some other regional plans of the Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority and Bombay Municipal Corporation, and high-resolution composite satellite imagery of Mumbai from the NASA Landsat 7 series.
You can view and download these maps at:
http://www.crit.org.in/archives/maps
You can view the images at different sizes, and if you want to download them, simply right-click on the image. To download the originals, view at original size and right-click. Please note that the file sizes are very large, between 5-25 MB and will require a fast connection to view and download properly. You can check the size of the image before choosing the size at which to view.
We will be adding more maps and plans to this archive over the next few weeks, so please check back, and send me your suggestions for developing this Mumbai Map Archive. If anyone here is experienced with GRASS and Map Server, please contact me off the list.
Best
S.K.
