Yossef Rapoport (Professor for Islamic history at Queen Mary University of London) gives here a general history of Arab and Ottoman cartography, omitting Iranian cartography. Rapoport is cautious about the relationship between al-Khwarizmi and the map of al-Ma'mun (d. 218/833), and he is right to be because al-Khwarizmi situates Samarra under the successor of al-Ma'mun. Chapter 5 makes a foray into the beginning of Ottoman cartography with Piri Reis's world map and the I Book on Seafaring i , for which Rapoport sums up the current theories very well.
