A supplement to the journey through time – maps
Since 2013, the journey through time – maps has enabled users to explore more than 180 years of Swiss history. It combines 3 generations of maps produced by swisstopo: the Dufour Map, the Siegfried Map and the National Map, in different scales: 1:25’000, 1:50’000 or 1:100’000. With this tool, anyone can quickly and easily observe the impressive evolution of the territory since the middle of the 19th century.
To facilitate accurate temporal analyses, swisstopo plans to implement the time travel function for each map collection separately. By doing this, the displayed map remains the same regardless of the zoom level applied by the user. To get started and gather user feedback, swisstopo is publishing today a journey through time for the 1:25’000 National Map on:
