Madagascar at 1:800,000 is an indexed map with additional street plans and enlargements of popular regions on the reverse. The publisher has chosen to concentrate on creating a map which will primarily be of use for a tourist navigating between main points of interest as opposed to stressing more detailed cartography.

Tarred and untarred national and main roads and minor roads are clearly marked, as are airports and ferry routes. Provincial boundaries are demarcated.

In keeping with the publisher’s emphasis on a general navigational, tourist related map national parks and reserves and areas of tourist interest all specifically highlighted. Basic cartography is provided by sparse spot heights and rivers are obviously marked.

Also included on the map are small charts for a selection of locations around the island which indicate average temperatures, levels of rainfall and hours of sunlight for each month, a calendar of events throughout the year, a table indicating distances between major towns and some basic language tips.

On the reverse of the map are street plans of Antananarivo, Diégo Suarez, Mahajanga, Fort Dauphin and Tamatave as well as local area road maps for Nosy Bé and Île Sainte Marie.
