Topographic maps of scale 1 1000000. Interactive world map

  • 23.12.2021

Announces that its database cartographic product "Digital map of the Russian Federation at a scale of 1: 1000000" became available to all categories of consumers. There are two types of licenses: for internal corporate use and for publishing on the Internet. In both cases, the customer also receives a full package of permits for the chosen method of using cartographic information.

The database "Digital map of the Russian Federation at a scale of 1: 1000000" is a single (non-sheet) digital topographic map covering the entire territory of the Russian Federation. This database is completely ready for use in ArcGIS, which has become the de facto standard in the creation of complex GIS in government agencies and the commercial sector. ArcGIS software allows the customer to overlay any additional information on the map, the nature of which is determined by his main activity. For example: data on the location and results of work of territorial offices and production sites, a map of soil or forest cover, information on environmental pollution or mineral reserves, location of transport that changes over time, etc. In this case, the sources of "superimposed" information can be databases of different formats , various business applications, as well as web services operating inside the enterprise or on the Internet.

This development of "DATA +" is already used in many of the largest government agencies and commercial organizations in the country. In particular, Rosreestr uses it for your portal as a "substrate" for putting cadastral and other information on it. At the same time, this DATA + product is needed by a much wider range of customers. This is due to the rapid growth of interest in GIS in the public sector and various sectors of the Russian economy in 2009-2010. At the same time, tasks where GIS becomes one of the main infrastructural elements of an information system at the scale of an organization, an industry cluster, a region, a federal district, and the entire country come to the fore.

This product of the DATA + company is intended primarily for organizations whose activities cover the entire territory of the Russian Federation or a significant part of it. Among them: the structures of the Ministry of Emergency Situations and the Ministry of Internal Affairs, freight carriers and telecommunications operators, rail and road transport, mail, commercial fast delivery services and many others. Another target group is made up of enterprises with large production facilities: factories, pipelines, fields, road networks, etc. Within the framework of a single GIS, these consumers can share both this database (as an overview map) and larger-scale maps for detailed display of their production facilities and their surroundings.

The database "Digital map of the Russian Federation at a scale of 1: 1,000,000" was prepared on the basis of sheet topographic maps of the same scale obtained from the State Cartographic Fund of the Russian Federation. The transfer of these maps from the exchange format of the GIS "Panorama" to the format of ArcGIS required, in particular, the "stitching" of sheets, separation of layers and a number of other transformations. In addition, DATA + specialists carried out a set of works necessary to prepare maps for publication on the Internet, including generalization, generalization, building a cache, and more. All this made this DATA + development the most accurate and convenient all-Russian computer map of this scale available on the Russian market.

A state located in Eurasia (Eastern Europe and Asia). It consists of 46 regions, 22 republics, 1 autonomous region, 9 territories, 4 autonomous districts and 3 cities of federal significance. Russia is the largest country in the world (17 125 407 km² (1/9) of the entire land area of ​​the Earth, or (1/8) of the land inhabited by man). From north to south, the country stretches for more than 4,000 km, and from west to east for almost 10,000 km.

Interesting maps of Russia can be found in our articles:

Russia borders on 18 countries - this is the largest indicator in the world, of which by land with the following states: Norway, Finland, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Belarus, Ukraine, Abkhazia, Georgia, South Ossetia, Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, China, Mongolia, North Korea; only by sea it borders on Japan and the USA.

International map of the world (other names: International Map of the World on the Millionth Scale, IMW, Carte internationale du monde) in scale 1: 1,000,000 covering the whole world. The site contains a collection of sheets on the territory of present-day Russia and neighboring countries, excluding a bit of the western part and the northern part. The map has a second, unofficial name: "The Million Map", because of its scale.

The collection includes sheets of the 1957, 1964 and 1975 editions. The state of the terrain varies from sheet to sheet, depending on the source maps used to compile the Millionaire Map. The earliest original maps date from the twenties of the 20th century, the latest to the sixties.

This "International Map of the World 1: 1,000,000" has a very long and difficult fate with a bad ending.

The history of creation and work on the Millionth map of the world

The map project began to emerge at the International Geographic Congresses held at the very end of the 19th century. The idea of ​​creating such a global map was first suggested in the 1860s by Sir Henry James, head of the English Survey Department. And already in 1891, at the fifth congress, the German geographer Albrecht Penck (1858-1945) proposed the project itself to create a world map by the joint efforts of all interested countries. According to Penka's project, the map was supposed to consist of 2500 sheets with a scale of 1 cm. 10 km.

In 1895, Penck spoke before a specially created commission, and announced a list of rules according to which the Millionth Map would be created. Also, a multifaceted map projection was finally agreed, and a layout of sheets 6 ° in longitude and 4 ° in latitude.

England, France and Germany pioneered the creation of map sheets in 1899, without waiting for the final rules to be worked out. In particular, the French Geographical Service of the army compiled and published in 1899-1909 57 sheets for Europe, Turkey, Northern Iran, Afghanistan, Turkestan, China and America, albeit with the initial meridian from Paris. England has created sheets for Africa, with longitude zero from Greenwich, but with heights in feet. For the Germans, the sheet count was obtained from 2 ° north latitude, and not from the equator.

At the 1904 international congress in the United States, the congress has already approved the idea of ​​this map for 4 times, and called for the host country of the event to participate in the work on the project. The US Geological Survey joined the work on the map, which conducted topographic surveys in eleven states, and compiled a test sheet of the map at a scale of 1: 760320 and with measurements in feet.

At the ninth congress in 1908, it was decided to collect all the best from previously created cards in different styles, to develop the final rules and symbols. From Russia, Yu.M. Shokalsky.

In 1913, at an international conference, Albrecht Penck's project was finally standardized. For example, it was decided that all roads would be painted in red, topographic features of the relief would be marked with brown lines, cities and railways would be painted in black.

They decided to write the names of settlements on the map in Latin letters, transliterating the local sound of the names. The map legend was written in English and French.

During the years of the first and, then, the second world war, work on the map was actually frozen. Only the United States continued to actively work on the project, conducting research on the territory of Central and South America. Despite the difficult world situation, by 1930, 405 sheets of maps were already ready. But during the bombing of the Second World War, the office in England, the so-called "Central Bureau of the Map of the World in London", where the data flowed and where the archives were kept, was significantly damaged.

After the war in 1953, the United Nations undertook to finish the work on the map. The work on the map was controlled by the UN until 1980. By this time, interest in this "long-term construction map" disappeared, and in 1987 the project was finally stopped.

Unfortunately, this ambitious international project, in which all countries were supposed to participate in one way or another, was never completed. Of the 2,500 planned sheets, only about 850 were created.

Our alternative "Karta Mira 1: 2500000"

Countries such as the USSR, Hungary, East Germany, Bulgaria, Czechoslovakia, Poland and Romania immediately after the end of World War II realized the failure of this project and jointly created their own World Map on a scale of 1: 2500000 (1 cm 25 km.).

The creation of the planned 262 map sheets was divided between the geodetic services of the participating countries. The first sets of sheets were published in 1964, and finally the first edition was published in 1975 in full. The project was completed. The second edition was published in 1989.

Our World Map has become a household name for the Western world, like Matryoshka, Sputnik and Balalayka. Start typing in google: Karta Mira, and he will not offer you to translate this name in Latin into the World Map, but will add "Karta Mira 1: 2500000 scale". Moreover, this map is practically unknown in our country, and in other countries that created it. At the time of this writing, you can only find the Wikipedia article in English and German.

Legend for the Million Card

Over the past 15 ... 20 years, as a result of numerous experimental studies using the above test schemes, extensive data have been obtained on the behavior of soils under a complex stress state. Since currently in ...

  • Elastoplastic deformation of the medium and loading surface

    Deformations of elastoplastic materials, including soils, consist of elastic (reversible) and residual (plastic). To draw up the most general ideas about the behavior of soils under arbitrary loading, it is necessary to study the regularities separately ...

  • Description of schemes and results of soil tests using invariants of stress and strain states

    In the study of soils, as well as structural materials, in the theory of plasticity, it is customary to distinguish between loading and unloading. Loading is a process in which an increase in plastic (residual) deformations occurs, and a process accompanied by a change (decrease) ...

    • Invariants of the stressed and deformed states of the soil environment

      The application of invariants of stress and strain states in soil mechanics began with the emergence and development of soil studies in devices that allow for two- and three-axis deformation of samples under conditions of a complex stress state ...

    • On the coefficients of stability and comparison with the results of experiments

      Since in all the problems considered in this chapter, the soil is considered to be in the ultimate stress state, all the calculation results correspond to the case when the safety factor k3 = 1. For ...

    • Soil pressure on structures

      The methods of the theory of limiting equilibrium are especially effective in the problems of determining the soil pressure on structures, in particular, retaining walls. In this case, a given load on the soil surface is usually taken, for example, the normal pressure p (x), and ...

    More about "World Map"

    Delivery forms:

    • "General geographic map of Russia and Europe" 1: 1 000 000 (1 CD ROM)
    • "General geographic map of the world with relief" 1: 1 000 000 (4 CD ROM)
    • "General geographic map of the world without relief" 1: 1 000 000 (1 CD ROM)

    Information about the absolute horizontal and vertical accuracy for map sheets is contained in the Data Quality table. Values ​​vary depending on area availability. Most of the planet has a map accuracy of less than 1 kilometer in plan and from 150 to 300 meters in altitude. Relative accuracy, i.e. the accuracy of the relative positioning of adjacent objects is much higher than the absolute one. It should be recalled that the map was created mainly using sources of scale 1: 1,000,000, and, therefore, the accuracy of drawing objects on a digital map corresponds to the limitations of digitization. Therefore, it is recommended to use the map in the scale range from 1: 500000 to 1: 2000000.

    The content of the map is presented on five CD-disks, each of which contains about 600 Mb of information presented by region.

    • CD1 - North America
    • CD2 - Europe and North Asia
    • CD3 - South America, Africa, Middle East
