520 |a While the mapping activities of French Jesuits in China and New France have been extensively studied, those in India have received less attention. While benefiting from the French crown's interest in using the Jesuits as a tool for empire, they did not help develop an overarching imperial structure like that of Spain and Portugal or that of the Manchu Qing Dynasty. The work of Jean-Venant Bouchet (1655-1732), Louis-Noël de Bourzes (1673-1735), Claude Moriset (1667-1742), Claude-Stanislas Boudier (1686-1757), Gaston-Laurent Cœurdoux (1691-1779), and many others was instead important in building linkages between institutions and individuals in Europe and India. It further allowed commercial cartographers in Paris and London like Guillaume Delisle (1675-1726), Jean-Baptiste d'Anville (1697-1782), and James Rennell (1742-1830) to develop a more sophisticated picture of the interior of India.
