《GB/T 20257.4-2017国家基本比例尺地图图式 第4部分:1:250 000 1:500 000 1:1 000 000地形图图式》由TC230(全国地理信息标准化技术委员会)归口,主管部门为自然资源部(测绘地理)。
Introduction
Analysis of the core content of the standard
| Element category | New symbols (2017 edition) | Revision points | Application scenarios |
|---|---|---|---|
| Water system | 5 items such as culverts and dangerous shore areas | Refined representation method of dry riverbed | Water resources management and flood control planning |
| Transportation | 7 items such as high-speed railways and wildlife passages | Street classification adjustment | Transportation network design |
Symbol system technical specifications
Symbol classification system
- Symbols based on scale: retain the length and width ratio of features (such as large reservoirs)
- Semi-scale symbols: only maintain the length ratio (such as rural roads)
- Symbols not based on scale: indicate positioning points (such as survey control points)
Implementation suggestions
Special attention should be paid when making maps:
- When features conflict, prioritize them according to the order of natural elements > artificial elements, primary elements > secondary elements
- No more than 3 vegetation symbols are allowed, and those with low economic value shall be discarded
- National boundary indication must be approved by the state, and the error must be ≤0.1mm
Technical evolution analysis
Main improvements compared to the 2007 version:
- Added 21 new element symbols to adapt to new infrastructure such as high-speed rail
- Optimized the symbol size algorithm, stipulating that the line thickness is 0.1mm and the dot diameter is 0.15mm
- Introduced CMYK four-color printing specifications, with a color difference tolerance of ≤5%
