The figures above provide information about numerous developments which took place in an Australian town (Tarnagul) over a century, reported in 1900, 1950 and 2000.
Overall, a comparison among the maps illustrates a significant transformation of the village from a mostly rural area to a mainly urban town.
As the figures show, in 1900 the town area was located in the centre of the map, surrounded by mandarin trees on the southern and oranges in the northern, placing the river in the eastern and the diary on the east side of this. Besides, the town was crossed by a road from east to west.
However, despite doubling the size of the village in 1950, the mandarins from the south were replaced by more orange trees. In addition, a train station and packing sheds were built beside both orange farms, and the dairy was converted into a lemon and grapefruit land.
By 2000, numerous changes were witnessed in the town, not only reducing its size but also changing the rural areas. The eastern side of the village was chopped down, and a wildlife sanctuary was erected. Also, the oranges’ lands are unused by this year. Packing sheds are replaced by a local museum and a craft market together, leaving the tourist shop replacing the old railway station. On the other side of the tracks, a new park was created.
Please your reviews are becoming too tiny to see with ordinary eyes. Can something be done about it?
