This map contains new and updated data for all of the South Orkney Islands on one side and a detailed map of Signy Island on the reverse. The maps feature topographic details including rock, moraine and ice boundaries, the location of lakes, bathymetry, contours and spot heights. The terrain is indicated with hillshading from a new elevation model, highlighting the mountainous ridges along the centre of the islands. Side A: 1:100 000 scale map of the South Orkney Islands including Inaccessible Islands, Coronation Island, Powell Island and Laurie Island. The map shows the location of research stations, Antarctic Specially Protected Areas (ASPAs) and Important Bird Areas (IBAs). Place names from the UK Antarctic Place-names Committee gazetteer are shown on the map. Side B: 1:10 000 scale map of Signy Island and surrounding islands and rocks. Displaying topographic data in more detail than side A, this map shows the diverse and isolated island of Signy, one of the South Orkney Islands. Signy Research Station is located on the map, alongside huts present around the island. Bathymetry and offshore rocks from hydrographic charts are shown on the map, as well as shallow, shoal areas. This double-sided topographic map covers the South Orkney Islands on one side and a more detailed map of Signy Island on the reverse.
