The 'Guang Yu Tu' (Enlarged Territorial Atlas) is a landmark of Chinese cartography that has been extensively studied but never fully translated into English. The most significant scholarly treatment is Walter Fuchs' 1946 monograph, which provides a detailed analysis and partial translations of the maps and text, but does not constitute a complete English edition of the entire atlas. Other mentions in works like Joseph Needham's 'Science and Civilisation in China' are limited to excerpts and descriptions.
