Maps of the German Empire 1: 100 000, normal edition 291 Burg b.M.

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.根据普鲁士的倡议，1878年正式决议启动统一德意志帝国地图集（Reichskartewerk）的编制工作，该图集最初由普鲁士、巴伐利亚、符腾堡及萨克森等邦国于1909年完成。 这套共计675幅分幅、比例尺为1:100 000的德意志帝国地图，是首幅针对当时德意志帝国全域开展全国统一测绘的大比例尺地图，长期以来被公认为典范性的总参谋部专用地图。 该地图采用多面体投影制作，作为总参谋部分级专用地图，其地理覆盖范围为经度跨度30度、纬度跨度15度。 由此得到的中等规格地图幅面为35 cm × 28 cm，对应实地覆盖面积35 km × 28 km。该地图集最初仅推出单色版本，原定的多色制版方案最终未能完成。 该地图采用平版印制。
