Each dot on the map corresponds to a location Humboldt recorded visiting. Hover over the highlighted boxes for annotations that reveal more information about the functionality of the Itinera interface. Among Itinera agents, Humboldt's travel record is particularly far-reaching. Certain Itinera agents are given precedence over others due to the research choices of the Project Managers. Alexander von Humboldt's voyages were deemed particularly important because they extended Itinera into Russia and South America. Visit Itinera to generate a map for another traveler.
