Anand guruji biography
Hedin is known for his major expeditions to Tibet and Central Asia from 1893 to 1909, which helped fill in many "white spots" on the world map. In Tibet alone, he mapped approximately 170,000 square kilometers. Despite the simplicity of his distance calculation method, many of his maps had only minor errors compared to modern standards (according to the estimates of Karl Rosen in 1918, the maximum error in distance was 2%).
Accomplishments
Hedin was the last person to be granted nobility by the Swedish king in 1902, as the institution of nobility was formally abolished in 1975.
