Maps of the German Empire 1: 100 000, normal edition 242 Neuruppin

On the Prussian proposal, the production of a unified Reichskartewerk was decided in 1878 and was first completed by the Länder of Prussia, Bavaria, Württemberg and Saxony in 1909. The map of the German Empire 1: 100 000 in 675 sheets is the first map of larger scale, which has been processed nationwide for the then Reich area and was therefore considered for a long time as the General Staff Card par excellence. The map was designed in polyhedral projection as a grade department map and has an extension of 30 degrees geogr. Length and 15 degrees geogr. Wide. This results in a medium map format of 35 cm x 28 cm corresponding to an area of 35 km x 28 km. The map work originally appeared in a monochrome edition, a decided multi-color edition was not completed. The cards are delivered plano.经普鲁士提议，统一德意志帝国地图集（Reichskartewerk）的编制工作于1878年正式立项，并于1909年由普鲁士、巴伐利亚、符腾堡及萨克森四个邦首次完成。 这套共计675幅的德意志帝国1:10万比例尺地图，是首个针对当时德意志帝国全域开展全国性测绘的大比例尺地图，长期以来被视为顶级总参谋部专用地图（General Staff Card）。 该地图采用多面体投影（polyhedral projection）作为分级部门专用底图，覆盖范围为地理经度30度、地理纬度15度。 由此形成的单幅中等幅面尺寸为35厘米×28厘米，对应实地覆盖面积35千米×28千米。该地图集最初仅推出单色印刷版本，原定的多色印刷版本最终未能完成。 该系列地图以平版（plano）印刷方式交付发行。
