Andorra mountain passes catalogue

Description

An initial list of 152 passes was drawn up by Alain Gillodes in 2007, based on the 1:25000 map of Andorra produced by the IGA (Institute of Applied Geography) in Barcelona and the 1:40000 map produced by Editorial Alpina in Granollers. In 2014, Régis Paraz repositioned all the passes in Andorra on digital maps (the passes had been located on paper maps; with the uncertainties of measurement and some inevitable typing errors, the calculations of latitude and longitude coordinates had been incorrect). This was an opportunity to make new discoveries and to eliminate a number of passes where the topography was not consistent. Some passes were renamed parishes (the names of the provinces in Andorra) and the codes were rectified and standardised by Graham Cutting. Patrick Schleppi set up the map links.
