The map library of the Institut Cartografic de Catalunya in Barcelona posted a digital version of the Geographia of Claudius Ptolemy in an edition of Sebastian Münster, published in Basel in 1542. You can visit it in the address http://www.icc.cat/web/content/cartoteca/ptolomeullibre/Default.html. For browsing them you must have Silverlight installed. If you do not have it you can download upon starting the application. The Map Library is planning to add more atlases so that they can be displayed while maintaining the appearance of the original.
