Maps are a valuable source of information in historical research, though many elements concerning the production of those maps need consideration, spatial accuracy being foremost among them. The use of geographic information systems (GIS) can often help one overcome spatial inaccuracy by overlaying histoncal maps with modern surveys. However, for those sites with low visibility or few extant features, manual scaling of the histoncal maps in a digital format may provide better results, contributing to a visualization of a site ' s history. This article demonstrates the use of GIS methods for understanding the site of the West Point Foundry at Cold Spnng, New York.
