Keywords: Variable radius cartography; History of cartography; Expanding Earth;
Summary/Abstract: It is an aim of the present extended abstract to show that in the last century cartography was used in a way more or less complex, more or less intertwined with other disciplines and databases, not as pure representation or in the spirit of the simple fits that supported continental displacements, but as experiments of greater significance with a value of proof in favour of the planet expansion, and providing suggestions to Physics, Astronomy and Cosmology about probable incompleteness of their current conceptions.
