Abstract


This paper studies the organization and work of a cartographic section of the Istituto Geografico Militare, which was sent to Spain in 1937 in order to reinforce the efficiency of the Corpo di Truppe Volontarie. Among the maps compiled by the Italian cartographers we emphasise a series of 60 sheets of the Topographic Map of Spain at the scale of 1:50.000, and the edition of a medium-scale Road Map (1:200.000), in thirteen sheets, covering an area of 197,838 square kilometres of the Iberian Peninsula.
