This is a Planimetric from 1932 of a walled Chinese city and its irrigation system. The map was created by the Japanese Expeditionary forces in Shanghai. The Planimetric map focuses primarily on horizontal features of the shown area, in particular this map is descriptive of the city boundaries, water systems, lakes or ponds, roads, and what seems to be forest areas.
