Pujades i Bataller, Ramon J.: Les cartes portolanes: la representacio medieval d'una mar solcada [With an English version of the text entitled, 'Portolan charts: the medieval representation of a ploughed sea', pp.401-526]. (Barcelona: Institut Cartografic de Catalunya; Institut d'Estudis Catalans; Institut Europeu de la Mediterrania; Lunwerg, 2007). Pujades research as paleographer in medieval archives got important results. But as main benchmark he presents all known portolan charts and atlas before 1450 in good resolution on an DVD in the back of the book. This is the most outstanding publication of portolans for the last 100 years. The DVD software can only display the charts in 1024x768 resolution but with zoom.
