Cartographer: Rigobert Bonne was a French cartographer and hydrographer who lived from 1727 to 1795. He was known for his contributions to the field of geography, particularly his maps and charts of various regions of the world.
One of Bonne's notable works was his map of the Philippines, which he created in the late 18th century. The map, titled "Les Isles Philippines," was published in 1780 and featured detailed information about the geography and topography of the archipelago.
Bonne's map of the Philippines was praised for its accuracy and attention to detail. It included information about the country's coastline, rivers, mountains, and major cities, as well as other important geographic features.
The map was also notable for its use of shading and color to represent different elevations and landforms.
Today, Bonne's map of the Philippines is considered a valuable historical document and is often used by researchers and scholars to study the country's geography and history.
