Vatikan, Biblioteca Apostolica Vaticana, Pal. lat. 1362 A
Pietro Vesconte
Land- und Seekarten (Portolane) — Italien, 14. Jh. (1320)

For the dating the website lists this as 14th century, 1320 based on a signiture from Pietro Vesconte, who was active between 1310-1330. The world map from 1448 was supposedly added later. 

The map is of "Akkon", which is Acre, Israel.
