     The electronic map "e-HongKongGuide" 2024 edition produced by the Lands Department (LandsD) is available for free download today (January 24).
           
     This year's edition features the new town development in the Northern Metropolis. Three new towns, namely Tin Shui Wai, Yuen Long and Fanling/Sheung Shui, are located within this area. The public can learn about the topographic, demographic and developmental changes of these new towns over the past decades, as well as the future development of their surrounding areas through the new interactive storytelling map.
      
     In addition, the "e-HongKongGuide" provides 119 detailed maps of Hong Kong in A3/A4 sizes, gazetteers of street and place names, and indexes of estates and buildings. These maps cover the whole territory of Hong Kong, with those for urban areas and other built-up areas depicted on a larger scale.
           
     The maps, in GeoPDF format, can be read on desktop computers and applications on mobile devices in offline mode. Users can easily locate their positions on the "e-HongKongGuide" maps with satellite positioning functions. Button links are provided on the maps and indexes for easy browsing on desktop computers. Maps in A3/A4 sizes can also be printed out.

     The new "e-HongKongGuide" is available for browsing and free download on the LandsD's website (www.landsd.gov.hk/mapping/en/download/ehkg.htm). For enquiries, please call 2231 3187.
      
     LandsD ceased the annual publication of the printed edition of "Hong Kong Guide" starting from 2023. Special edition of paper-based map book or photo book will be published as and when necessary.
