The objective of this restoration is to return the scanned map as closely as possible to its original condition while preserving all authentic details.
Remove visible damage including stains, discoloration, and age marks
Repair cracks, creases, tears, and fold lines
Clean surface imperfections such as spots, smudges, and scanning artefacts
Restore faded areas to improve clarity, contrast, and legibility
Reconstruct any missing or heavily degraded sections using surrounding detail as reference
Maintain original linework, typography, and proportions without alteration
Avoid over-processing to ensure the final result remains true to the original document
The final output should present a clean, balanced, and historically accurate representation of the map, suitable for reproduction.
