Bangka Island 1930s Historical Topographic Map Dataset (176 Sheets)

Georeferenced raster dataset of the 1930s Dutch Colonial Topographic Map Series of Bangka Island (KK 083-04-01 / 085-04-10), in WGS 84 (EPSG:4326). Intended as a ground-truth base layer for deep-learning / computer-vision analysis of historical land use and long-term deforestation.

Code, methodology and full technical report: https://github.com/atlganibrahim-glitch/bangka-historical-gis-dataset

Folder	Sheets	Description
`GEOREF_FINAL_STANDARD_164/`	164	Single-cell georeferenced GeoTIFFs (one 5′×5′ graticule cell each)
`GEOREF_FINAL_COMPOSITE_12/`	12	Composite georeferenced GeoTIFFs (two adjacent cells, coastline sheets)
`main maps/`	176	Raw scanned sheets (source input)
`recovered_maps/`	176	Cropped images (legend removed), input to georeferencing

All georeferenced outputs are EPSG:4326 GeoTIFFs. The 164 single-cell sheets tile seamlessly (grid-origin scatter σ = 0.0000′).
