Polish general [[Stanisław Maczek]] had once been shown an impressive outdoor map of land and water in the Netherlands demonstrating the working of the waterways (which had been an obstacle to the Polish forces progress in 1944). This had inspired Maczek and his companions to create [[Great Polish Map of Scotland]] as a 70-ton permanent three-dimensional reminder of Scotland's hospitality to his compatriots. In 1974, the coastline and relief of Scotland were laid out by Kazimierz Trafas, a Polish student geographer-planner, based on existing Bartholomew Half-Inch map sheets. Engineering infrastructure was put in place to surround it with a sea of water and at the General's request some of the main rivers were even arranged to flow from headwaters pumped into the mountains. The map was finished in 1979, but had to be restored between 2013 and 2017.<ref>Mapa Scotland. [http://www.mapascotland.org/story-of-the-map/ ''Story of the Map''].</ref>

====Challenger Relief Map of British Columbia====
The Challenger Relief Map of [[British Columbia]] is a hand-built topographic map of the province, 80 feet by 76 feet. Built by George Challenger and his family from 1947 to 1954, it features all of B.C.'s mountains, lakes, rivers and valleys in exact-scaled topographical detail. Residing in the British Columbia Pavilion at the [[Pacific National Exhibition]] (PNE) in Vancouver from 1954 to 1997 it was viewed by millions of visitors. The [[Guinness World Records|Guinness Book of Records]] cites the Challenger Map as the largest of its kind in the world. The map in its entirety occupies 6,080 square feet (1,850 square metres) of space. It was disassembled in 1997; there is a project to restore it in a new location.<ref>[https://challengermap.ca/ The Challenger Relief Map of British Columbia].</ref>
