The Atlas Tyrolensis is the first geographic map of Tyrol created based on a geodetic survey. It was initiated by the Jesuit priest Ignaz Weinhart in the 1760s–1770s. The authors were Peter Anich from Oberperfuss and his student Blasius Hueber, who, due to their peasant origins and lack of formal education, were also nicknamed Bauernkartografen.
