About Us
Island Map Publishing is owned by a partnership headed by Todd Turrell since its formation in 2005. Along with partners Tim Hall, Marielle Nageon de LeStang and Amanda Horton, Todd leads the team to produce modern maps of the Bahamas, Caribbean, Florida and many more regions.
With lead cartographer Randi Jones, all new maps are produced with a mix of sophisticated software, charts, aerials, and GIS. Every map is carefully reviewed and edited by a local with intimate knowledge of the area. The end result is informative, interesting and colorful maps that are both accurate and beautiful.
