This series of maps covers the whole of Australia at a scale of 1:250 000 (1cm on a map represents 2.5km on the ground) and comprises 513 maps. This is the largest scale at which published topographic maps cover the entire continent.

Longitudinal Cross Section

At this scale 1cm on the map represents 1km on the ground. Each map covers a minimum area of 0.5 degrees longitude by 0.5 degrees latitude or about 54 kilometres by 54 kilometres. The contour interval is 20 metres. Many maps are supplemented by hill shading.

This series of maps covers the whole of Papua New Guinea at a scale of 1:250 000 (1cm on a map represents 2.5km on the ground). Each standard map covers an area of 1.5 degrees longitude by 1 degree latitude or about 150km from east to west and 110km from north to south. There are more than 50 special maps in the series and these maps cover a non-standard area some also include imagery and additional narrative information. Typically, where a map produced on standard sheet lines is largely ocean it is combined with its landward neighbour. These maps contain natural and constructed features including road and rail infrastructure, vegetation, hydrography, contours (interval 50m), localities and some administrative boundaries. Some maps are supplemented by relief shading.
