The above map shows some of my completed island mapping projects. Each icon contains the name of the primary island associated with the project and a link to the post. Once all of my projects are posted, the map will be covered with icons. To productively use the map, zoom into a region of interest. Then select an icon.

Each of my maps is constructed of numerous layers of information. All of the layers are vector files. I will make these files available upon request. You are free to use them with certain restrictions - 1) Don't sell them. You can use them on research projects, post them to your website or things of that nature. If you aren't sure about the use of my maps, drop me a line and we can discuss your idea. 2) Give me credit when you use my vectors or images of my maps. Credit them to Peter Minton @ EVS-Islands

If I have the island vector file(s) and based upon your need, I will make them available. Images of my maps are yours to download and use, with the above restrictions applicable. Enjoy!

Be Careful You Map-Makers!

Late in the day on Friday the 21st, I received a job offer too good to believe. A representative from a highly respected firm, Noble Denton Consultants, suggested that I merely send a CV (like a resume) and I would be offered a position as a map-maker within this world-renowned company. The pay was going to be $16,000 per month. "Wow!" I said to my wife. "This is one hell of an offer." She said, "I don't trust it." "Why don't you give the personnel department at company headquarters a call and see if this offer is for real?" Meanwhile, Saturday and Sunday were days filled with numerous emails from Dr Jonathon Cook from Noble Denton. His final email, received Sunday night, said unless I apply for this position by submitting a comprehensive CV by April 25th, the window of opportunity would close. Monday morning I called Noble Denton, London. They responded back with a phone call to inform me that Dr Cook was in fact a fraud. The offer is bogus. He trys to extract money to help facilitate your entry into your new "fake" job. The people at Noble Denton said over the past 2-weeks they have been flooded with questions concerning this offer. They are aggressively attempting to located Dr Cook and will prosecute him to the full extent of the law. If the offer seems too good to be true . . . it is! Be careful out there, friends.
