every time I see old maps like this one, it blows my mind how accurate they are in an era with no satellites or aerial photos or anything. sure, everything’s a bit misshapen, but holy cow!

the patent is from 2009 https://patents.google.com/patent/US8246454B2/en
as the title specifies, it compares years up to 2023. right now it’s 2024, which means it’s not 2023 anymore. this is how years work.
