Norðurskautið er miðdepill kortsins, þar sem allir lengdarbaugar koma saman. Ísland er frekar smátt og sérkenna þess gætir lítið en það sést þó að landið er dregið eftir korti Guðbrands biskups Þorlákssonar. Örnefni eru 22 og er stafsetning þeirra lítið breytt frá Íslandskorti Mercators. Frísland og aðrar eyjar Zeno-kortsins eru á kortinu eftir því sem hnattstaða þeirra fellur að umgjörð þess. Í þremur hornum kortsins eru hringlaga sérkort í auknum mælikvarða af Færeyjum, Fríslandi og Hjaltlandi.</dc:description><dc:description>A map by Gerhard Mercator of the North Pole and the neighbouring countries from Atlas sive cosmographicæ. Iceland is small but we can see that it's drawn after the separate map of the country from the same book. In three corners on the sheet there are special maps of the Faeroes, Frisland and the Shetland Islands.</dc:description><creator-person authority-file-urn="urn:digmap.eu:NliAuthorities:dc84aa0f-323b-414f-b6fa-94b4db045034" virtual-authority-file-urn="urn:digmap.eu:UnionAuthorityFile:709ca6c0-eda4-4503-aa8f-67e466e5e542"><dc:creator>Gerhard Mercator</dc:creator><first-name>Gerhard</first-name><surname>Mercator</surname></creator-person><dc:title>Septentrionalivm terrarum descriptio</dc:title><dc:date>1595</dc:date><dc:publisher>Netherlands</dc:publisher><dc:identifier xsi:type="dcterms:URI">http://kort.bok.hi.is/kort/jpg/si0164x1024.jpg</dc:identifier><place name="Ísland"/><place name="Shetland Islands" prefered-name="Shetland Islands"><feature gazetteer-id="http://sws.geonames.org/2638011/" xsi:type="dcterms:Point">east=-1.3238525390625; north=60.291576510132;</feature></place></record>
