Presentation de l'atlas d'Algerie et de Tunisie

Summary

This article presents the compilation of the "Atlas of Algeria and Tunisia," published by the Government General of Algeria with financial support from the Tunisian government. The atlas aims to systematically organize natural and human geographic data of North Africa, providing a scientific basis for agricultural development and administrative management. It comprises seven sections: geology, hypsometry, climatology, vegetation, demography, economic geography, and administrative geography, all using a uniform scale to ensure comparability across maps. The article details the content, compilation methods, and data sources of each fascicle, and highlights the atlas as a significant scientific and industrial achievement led locally by Algerians, with both academic and practical value.
