The 650 maps will cover all American military battles from the Revolutionary War to the present day. Initially, the maps will be used for on-screen display in the form of interactive computer lessons. They will also be repurposed as black and white maps for study guides and eventually for textbooks as well. This project is expected to run through early 2006.
