Hokkaido in 1st map of Japan made by famed surveyor

TOKYO, Japan - Japan's northernmost main island of Hokkaido in the first map of the Japanese archipelago completed by surveyor Ino Tadataka in the early 19th century is seen in this file photo taken on Aug. 15, 2014. Researchers say the Hokkaido portion of the map was based on data collected by Ino's student and explorer Mamiya Rinzo rather than by Ino alone as previously thought.
