Summary

This article is a collection of academic reviews of the Atlas Polski and several maps of Poland, Portugal, Norway, and Sweden. The author provides detailed commentary on the content and value of geological, Quaternary, and geomorphological maps in the Atlas Polski, highlighting their presentation of recent findings in Polish tectonics and Ice Age research, while suggesting improvements such as letter symbols and international language explanations for better usability. Additionally, the reviews cover the characteristics, technical specifications, and cartographic quality of Poland's 1:600,000 administrative map, 1:700,000 geological and soil maps, Portugal's 1:25,000 military maps, Norway's Svalbard 1:100,000 topographic maps, and Sweden's 1:50,000 topographic maps. Overall, these maps reflect the advances in European cartography during the 1950s and serve as valuable references for geographical research.
