## Archive of guides and templates

*Guides on a wide range of topics as well as helpfull template documents have been established over the years.*

As the goal of this USE-IT Wiki is to provide an overview of how to overcome the various challenges of a map making project, most of it's pages are based on previously established guides and other documents that cover these challenges in detail.\
Where the Wiki pages present mapmaking projects from a contemporary point-of-view, archived documents may explore specific topics more deeply and provide examples that could inspire your own project.
