Does a blueprint means a ''project'' too??.
Does blueprint used for a service design to?as a service mapping?

Is there a very specific reason why BLUE was used? Or was it just randomly chosen?

- The physical/chemical process underneath (cyanotype) produces images of blue-white color. It was the most cheap and stable process available at the time.

Is there any specific reason for a picture of a tablet showing some poetry in Russian being used in this article?

== Diazo print use ==

Diazo prints are currently in use in cadastral surveying in Nepal. Not sure how to add this info to the main page... <!-- Template:Unsigned IP --><small class="autosigned">—&nbsp;Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/130.225.98.208|130.225.98.208]] ([[User talk:130.225.98.208#top|talk]]) 08:41, 7 June 2018 (UTC)</small> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->
: Click the "Edit" tab at the top left of the article page, and start typing. Be sure to include a reference, as I find your assertation hard to believe. Really, this month, Nepal government workers, are generating new diazo prints? I think what you mean is that the prints made years ago, and stored in the archives, are still in use, and this is likely to be the case many places, where the cost of scanning them is prohibitive. But that is not the same as saying, people are gathering new survey data, and recording it on new diazo prints.
: In fact the Government of Napal official web page for the Cadastral Survey Division, states, they are converting to "digital cadastral mapping. Since last few years Cadastral Survey Branch has been carrying out digital cadastral mapping..." I do not know how far they are gotten in the conversion process.

== Now mid-2018 ==

Rewrote to be date independent, and speak of the current situation without qualifications. If another editor has a ''current'' reference, which states that paper blueprints are in actual use in mid-2018, then by all means insert a qualified paragraph annotated with that reference. But I would be astounded to find that to be true. [[User:Nwbeeson|Nick Beeson]] ([[User talk:Nwbeeson|talk]]) 11:47, 18 June 2018 (UTC)

== Clarity rewrite ==

The introduction was wordy, and not clear. The soul of the Wikipedia introduction, is to inform the casual reader, of all the major concepts in the article. I made it clear blueprints were an early copying technique, capable of making an arbitrary number of copies. I removed the part about the later French method, since the reference to this method is titled "Forgotten Processes". It is forgotten because it was never used much. I could find ''nothing'' about it on the web. I used the Hershal method as I have a reputable printed reference to it.
