What's the difference between military maps and ordinary maps?

Maps are familiar to us, but what we are familiar with may only be the kind of ordinary maps we usually buy in the market. If you talk about military maps, you may find it strange. Now let's understand the difference between military maps and ordinary maps.

From the name of military map, we also know that it is mainly used for military operations. Of course, this kind of map is often marked with some specific symbols, which people without military experience can't understand, but ordinary maps are mainly used for our transportation or sightseeing, and this kind of map will be mainly marked as traffic roads and tourist attractions.

1, the military map has high accuracy.

The density of military maps of the Army is very high, and there is almost no difference in contour lines on military maps. Their scales are universal. If you learn contour lines, you can create a three-dimensional model perfectly according to military maps, which shows the accuracy of military maps, while ordinary maps are not so accurate.

2. Military maps are drawn by military professionals.

Because military maps are very strict, and the surveying and mapping system is copied by special personnel, now our country has an institution specially responsible for training talents in this field. Because the accuracy of military maps is very important, some people will survey the roof before the war, and even if the content on the map changes, they will have the opportunity to talk during the war.

From the above, we know that the scale of military maps is relatively fixed, which is larger than ordinary maps. If you hold a military map, you can find an inconspicuous end wall a few kilometers away. Find a sign that is not obvious somewhere. If people who know military maps can find their exact location even in unfamiliar places, because military maps are really accurate.
