Oostende NGI Topo 11-12

Topographical survey of Belgium at 1:50,000 from the country’s national survey organization, Nationaal Geografisch Instituut / Institut Géographique National. Contour interval varies according to the terrain, from 2.5 metres in the coastal areas to 10 metres in the Ardennes. The maps provide all the information expected of topographic mapping at this scale and additionally have an unusually large amount of vegetation and/or land use information (different types of woodlands, gardens, orchards, heath, etc). Each standard sheet covers approximately 32 x 20 km / 20 x 12 miles, with larger maps published for the border or coastal areas. The maps have a 1-km UTM grid, with margin ticks for latitude and longitude at intervals of 1''. Map legend and a glossary of terms used on the maps include English.

PLEASE NOTE: the Long-Distance Footpaths Map of Belgium at 1:300,000 is overprinted with the grid for the 1:50,000 topographic survey, showing the exact coverage of each sheet.
