Davies under the supervision of the Society for the Diffusion of Useful Knowledge. The map is a significant historical artifact, offering a glimpse into the urban design and layout of Saint Petersburg during the early 19th century. The Society for the Diffusion of Useful Knowledge was an influential British organization dedicated to the dissemination of knowledge and education. Their publication of this map reflects their commitment to making accurate and detailed information accessible to the public. The map's intricate details and precise labeling demonstrate the meticulous efforts of both Clarke and Davies in creating an accurate representation of the city.
