Tweet

The map was published in  Historia National Geographic Magazine 146  .

To create the map broke real data of the NIMA, and they were generalized as the map scale was small. Is elgio hidher spelling, but later was not twisted to fit the map page. Needs of the graphics and the composition of the page.

Given the theme of the map, I proposed to the editorial team the inclusion of sea currents, of great importance in the transatlantic voyages of galleons. Currents of winds them were not included because he came to the conclusion that would be less readable map.

Subsequently made modifications in photoshop and edited the information in Adobe Illustrator.

The map was Fernando j. Sanchez Menendez done by.
