Intelligence work is based on the gathering of information, including cartographic material for preparing new maps. This paper examines copies and re-editions, produced by British, Egyptian, and PLO ...military authorities, of topographical maps of Israel on a scale 1:100,000, which were published from the later part of the Mandate (1930s and 1940s), up to the 1980s. Certain features in the copies reflect distinctive political attitudes to the local situation or illustrate a lack of cartographic awareness of their significance. No serious attempts were made to hide the sources of the maps.
