Introduction
Analysis of the Standard Core Framework
| Element Categories | Provincial Requirements | Prefectural Requirements | County Requirements |
|---|---|---|---|
| Mathematical Foundations | 2000 National Geodetic Coordinate System 1:1.5 Million Typical Scale | Dual Standard Latitude Projection 1:1.25 Million Typical Scale | Gauss-Krüger Projection 1:50,000-1:100,000 Scale |
| Boundary Representation | Full Representation of County Boundaries | Full Representation of Township Boundaries | Village boundaries should be represented as much as possible |
| Current requirements | Data 3 months before publication | Data 6 months before publication | Boundary survey results are given priority |
Key technical points
Basic mathematical specifications
The standard stipulates the use of the 2000 National Geodetic Coordinate System, and the 1985 National Elevation Datum is used uniformly for elevation datums. The projection method can be flexibly selected according to the map range:
- Provincial atlas: Double standard parallel orthogonal conformal conic projection (e.g. Inner Mongolia 1:4.5 million)
- Large-scale map: Gauss-Krüger projection (county-level 1:10,000 map)
Structured content representation
The atlas adopts a three-level content structure:
- Sequence map group: Contains thematic maps such as geographical location and historical evolution
- Main map group: Colored by administrative level (provincial-prefectural-county)
- Appendix: Contains a table of rare characters for administrative regions (e.g., the pronunciation of "Pi" in the county)
Implementation suggestions
Key points of quality control
According to the requirements of GB/T19996-2005, special attention should be paid to:
- Boundary accuracy: National boundaries must use the standard sample map of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs
- Current information: Township adjustments require written confirmation from the civil affairs department
- Confidentiality review: Sensitive elements such as airports must be marked in accordance with the National Surveying and Mapping Document [2013] No. 1
Technological evolution direction
The standard reflects three major development trends:
- Extension from paper maps to electronic maps
- Transition from static representation to dynamic update
- From single political area elements to multi-dimensional information integration
