Volcanological Map of Prince Edward Island & Topographical Map of Prince Edward Island

Abstract

This is a Volcanological Map of Prince Edward Island and a Topographical Map of Prince Edward Island by Otto Langenegger and Wilhelm Verwoerd. The first complete topographical survey of Marion Island was undertaken over 50 years ago by Langenegger and Verwoerd. In January 1965 the First Biological & Geological Expedition sailed for Marion Island on the R.S.A., South Africa’s first Antarctic supply ship, then only three years old. The expedition was the brainchild of Eduard Meine van Zinderen Bakker, Senior, Professor of Botany at the then University of the Orange Free State.
