Map of the Czech Republic 1:1,000,000 - colour seamless

The Map of the Czech Republic 1:1,000,000 (MČR 1M) relates with the contents of the map of the Czech Republic 1:500,000 and is conceived as a general geographic map. It shows the entire territory of the Czech Republic on a single map sheet. The MČR 1M contains planimetry, altimetry, geographic coordinate grid, map lettering and the map legend. Planimetry consists of settlements, transportation (highways, roads, railways), hydrography (significant water courses and reservoirs), state and regional boundaries, vegetation and land surface (forests). Subject of the altimetry are elevation points. Map lettering and marginal notes consist of standard geographic names, map name and its scale with imprint data and the graphic scale, textual part of the legend geographic coordinates on the frame edges. The subjects of the map contents are coherently displayed also on the adjacent areas of neighbour states. The file data is provided in TIFF format and supplemented with TFW files for S-JTSK and ETRS89-TM33N coordinate systems.

Abstract: The Map of the Czech Republic 1:1,000,000 (MČR 1M) relates with the contents of the map of the Czech Republic 1:500,000 and is conceived as a general geographic map. It shows the entire territory of the Czech Republic on a single map sheet. The MČR 1M contains planimetry, altimetry, geographic coordinate grid, map lettering and the map legend. Planimetry consists of settlements, transportation (highways, roads, railways), hydrography (significant water courses and reservoirs), state and regional boundaries, vegetation and land surface (forests). Subject of the altimetry are elevation points. Map lettering and marginal notes consist of standard geographic names, map name and its scale with imprint data and the graphic scale, textual part of the legend geographic coordinates on the frame edges. The subjects of the map contents are coherently displayed also on the adjacent areas of neighbour states. The file data is provided in TIFF format and supplemented with TFW files for S-JTSK and ETRS89-TM33N coordinate systems.
Purpose: MČR 1M is conceived as an overview general geographic map. It displays the whole territory of the Czech Republic in one map sheet. It is exploited, among others, as a navigation layer in web map applications.

Other information: EPSG code 5514 S-JTSK / Krovak East North is an equivalent to the existing ESRI code 102067. The projection keeps the mathematic so called "east-north" orientation of coordinate axis where the X axis has positive values eastwards and Y axis northwards. This projection is suitable for exploitation in GIS applications. The projection is related to the Greenwich Prime Meridian (contrary to the EPSG 5221 S-JTSK (Ferro) / Krovak East North where the Prime Meridian is Ferro).
