"Thacker's Reduced Survey Map of India" was created by John Bartholomew in 1910. This map was published by Thacker, Spink & Co, a prominent publishing company in India during that time.

The map appears to be based on geographical data provided by the Surveyor General of India, which suggests that it aimed to provide an accurate representation of the Indian subcontinent at the time. Maps like these were essential for navigation, planning, and various administrative purposes during the colonial era.

John Bartholomew (1831–1893) was a Scottish cartographer and geographer known for his significant contributions to the field of mapping. He came from a family of mapmakers and continued their tradition by producing accurate and detailed maps.

Bartholomew was associated with the Edinburgh-based firm John Bartholomew and Son Ltd., which was founded by his grandfather in the early 19th century. Under his leadership, the company gained a reputation for producing high-quality maps, atlases, and geographical works. John Bartholomew's maps were known for their precision, attention to detail, and innovation in cartographic techniques.

John Bartholomew's contributions significantly advanced the field of cartography, and his maps were highly regarded for their accuracy and aesthetics. His work played an important role in providing people with accurate geographical information during an era of exploration and expanding global awareness.
