Goad map
Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'strict' not found. Goad maps a.k.a. Goad plans or Goad atlases incorporate detailed street maps including individual buildings and their uses.
The maps are named for Charles E. Goad who first produced such things for Fire Insurance companies.[1][2]
Charles Goad was a Civil Engineer who practised in Toronto, Ontario and London, and elsewhere. His major business was the creation of detailed street maps for the inner areas of industrial cities, often as a client of insurance companies. He also produced other larger-area maps e.g. for Ontario.
