MAP SCALES AND CLASSIFICATIONS

1. Map scale refers to the size of the representation on the map as compared to the size of the object on the ground. The scale generally used in architectural drawings, for example, is ¼ inch to one foot, which means that ¼ of an inch on the drawing equals one foot on the building

being drawn. The scales of models of buildings, railroads, and other objects may be one inch to several feet. Maps cover more extensive areas, and it is usually convenient to express the scale by a representative fraction or proportion, as 1/63,360, 1:63,360, or “one- inch-to-one-mile”. The scale of a map is smaller than that of another map when its scale denominator is larger: thus, 1:1,000,000 is a smaller scale than 1:100,000. Most maps carry linear, or bar, scales in one or more margins or in the title blocks.

2.Nautical charts are constructed on widely different scales and can be generally classified as follows: ocean sailing charts are smallscale charts, 1:5,000,000 or smaller, used for planning long voyages or marking the daily progress of a ship. Sailing charts, used for offshore navigation, show a generalized shoreline, only offshore soundings, and are at a scale 1:600,000-1:5,000,000.

3.General charts are used for coastwise navigation outside outlying reefs and shoals and are at a scale 1:100,000-1:600,000. Coast charts are intended for use in leaving and entering port or navigating inside outlying reefs or shoals and are at a scale 1:50,000-1:100,000. Harbour charts are for use in harbours and small waterways, with a scale usually larger than 1:50,000.

4.In rare instances reference may be made to the areal scale of a map, as opposed to the more common linear scale. In such cases the denominator of the fractional reference would be the square of the denominator of the linear scale. The linear scale may vary within a single map, particularly if the scale is small. Variations in the scale of a map because of the sphericity of the surface it represents may, for practical purposes, be considered as nil.
