Maps of Argentina

The maps of the Zagier series come from Argentina. They cover partly the same areas like JLM-maps, however, containing much more details on the argentinian side. On the Chilean side they have less information than the JLM-maps. Thus, they are better suited for travelling in Argentina. Unfortunately, they do not have additional maps on the back side like the JLM-maps. An excellent map is the Patagonian South Ice Field.

New in 2006:

Topographic maps of Aoneker, Argentina. They cover selected areas of the Andes (Chile and Argentina) in scales of 1:50.000-150.000. They are made using recent satellite data and Landsat-images. They probably represent the most precise maps currently available.
