- Atlas of the Dutch East Indies from 1890-1949 [when Dutch rule ended with Indonesia gaining its independence] as well as Dutch New Guinea up to 1962, including an index of 20,000 geographical placenames, Dutch-English and Malay-English glossaries plus a general legend to all signs used on the included topographical maps. A number of thematic maps address the administrative divisions, demography in 1930, history, economy, infrastructure, agriculture and aspects of the natural environment. Topographical maps of each region and major parts therein range from scales 1:750,000 to 1:2,000,000. Regional mapping also includes pre-1949 town plans where still available as well as 1:300,000 maps covering Sumatra and Java that include location and boundaries of 2,200 plantations and estates. For the regions Dutch Borneo, Celebes, the Lesser Sunda Islands, the Moluccas and Dutch New Guinea, these regional maps range from scales 1:100,000 to 1:1,250,000 but lack detail on most plantations and estates. About 120 pre-1949 town plans in the Dutch language are included but in the case of smaller towns never mapped by the Dutch or the Allies, these are shown as insets without street names on the 1:25,000 to 1:100,000 topographical maps.
