Note:

The map depicts Australia -here named Neu Holland-, South East Asia and the South West Pacific, Japan and western China. It celebrates the routes and encounters of the recent European voyages to the region, shows tracks of Cook, Tasman, Marshall, Bougainville, Carteret, Byron and other explorers. Australia, New Zealand, and the island Pacific have a lot of place names identified, and numerous tiny islands are named as far east as French Polynesia. New Zealand marks out the southern reaches of the map, with Japan and Korea in the north. The rudimentary shape of New Guinea reflects the little charting that took place there by 1802. New Zealand is shown as two islands labelled with it's Maori names. On the bottom left corner of the map there is a note stating that in the map it can be seen three sea trips of the Captain Cook, and other circumnavigators; that the direction of this is shown by small posts or arrows. The map reflects the booming German market in the Pacific region after Cook's voyages. The Germans themselves would start to explore the region in the 19th century and the German Empire would eventually encompass German New Guinea from 1884 to 1919.
