Description
English: 1831 map of Warsaw, Poland, the so-called "Nicholson's Plan"

Note that the map is neither very accurate in terms of precision [1] nor in proper place names. Many if not most have been misspelt (Oyrod Krole park should be Ogród Królewski, Kozary Wielopolski (six buildings to the north of the park) should be called Koszary Wielopolskie, Cekauz (Arsenal) => Cekhauz, Patac Kroleski => Pałac Królewski and so on).

Downloaded from David Rumsey's site ([2]), converted from .sid to .tiff format with mrsidgeodecode and then to .jpg with Adobe PS.
Polski: Plan Warszawy z roku 1831, tzw. Plan Nicholsona

Plan jest względnie niedokładny, zarówno jeśli chodzi o precyzję jak i nazwy własne[3]. Wiele z nich zostało przekręconych (na przykład "Oyrod Krole" zamiast "Ogród Królewski", "Kozary Wielopolski" w miejsce "Koszarów Wielopolskich", "Cekauz" zamiast "Cekhauz", "Patac Kroleski" zamiast "Pałac Królewski" itd.).

Mapa pobrana ze strony Davida Rumseya ([4]), przekonwertowana z formatu .sid do .tiff za pomocą mrsidgeodecode, a następnie do formatu .jpg z użyciem Adobe Photoshop.
