The National Maps of Switzerland, also referred to as the Swisstopo maps, are a set of official map series designed, edited and distributed by Swisstopo, the Swiss Federal Office of Topography. Each map series is based on an oblique, conformal , cylindrical projection ( Mercator projection ), with a Swiss Coordinate system ( CH1903 + ).
The original images for the Dufour Map were created in 1:25,000 scale (for the Swiss plateau) and 1:50,000 (for the mountains). However, the Dufour Map was published in 1:100,000 scale, enabling the territory of Switzerland to be divided into 25 sheets, each of which measured 70 centimetres (28 in) x 48 centimetres (19 in).
Info This map is part of a series of location maps with unified standards: SVG as file format, standardised colours and name scheme. The boundaries on these maps always show the de facto situation and do not imply any endorsement or acceptance.
The Siegfried Map projection was a cone equivalent, as for the Dufour Map. The print mode used for the 1:25,000 pages was initially intaglio, and from 1905 a printing plate. The 1:50,000 pages were printed via a lithography process, and from 1910 by intaglio. Until 1949, there were occasional revised editions of Siegfried Map pages.
