Yes, aka Antipodes map . Very useful in case you are interested in makingEarth Sandwich. A place not very far from me has its antipode on a tiny but touristy island. I'm thinking of contacting the popular hotels on the island to put a flyer in their lobby in case anyone is interested in making the sandwich.
