EVS-Islands: Nisos Psara GR

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!

Nisos Psara is part of the larger municipality of Chios. The village of Psara is located on the southern end of the island. Fewer than 500 individuals inhabit the island. It has always been inhabited. In the 1820, during the War for Independence, over 15,000 people were either sold into slavery or were slaughtered. The population has never recovered to those pre-war numbers.

This island is off the beaten track - no airport. Sounds like the perfect get-away!

The link above takes you into Wikipedia for some detailed information about the island. Happy learning!
