Carthage_location.png


Summary

This locator map image could be re-created using vector graphics as an SVG file . This has several advantages; see Commons:Media for cleanup for more information. If an SVG form of this image is available, please upload it and afterwards replace this template with {{ vector version available | new image name }} .


It is recommended to name the SVG file “Carthage location.svg”—then the template Vector version available (or Vva ) does not need the new image name parameter.
Description

Map of central Mediterranean, showing location of Carthage (36 51 N, 10 20 E)

Carthage is located near modern Tunis . Sardinia , Corsica , Italy , and Sicily are also shown here.

Created by GMT (Generic Mapping Tools, gmt.soest.hawaii.edu ), an open source cartographic software, using the map data that comes packaged with GMT. The map data were derived by the authors of GMT from two public domain databases. See Appendix K of The Generic Mapping Tools Version 3.4.4 Technical Reference and Cookbook .

Commands to create this map:

$ pscoast -Jm0.25i -R7/20/33/43 -G255/240/100 -S100/200/255 -P -V -W1/255/255/120 -N1/1/150/150/150  -Dh -K > carthage_location.ps
$ psxy -Jm0.25i -R7/20/33/43 -Sc0.15  -G255/0/0 -V -P -O >> carthage_location.ps
$ ps2epsi carthage_location.ps
$ mogrify -format png carthage_location.epsi
pscoast and psxy are from GMT. mogrify is from ImageMagick. ps2epsi is invoked solely to trim the bounding box down to just the size of the map image.
