Soviet Military Map Project

Do laambda19 đăng vào 07 tháng 06 năm 2025 bằng English.

OVERVIEW

I stumbled across a website which hosts every single Soviet military map 1:200k from 1985.

I plan to analyze each quadrant starting from the top left corner to the western side of russia, and map any unmapped settlements, buildings or other features.

I will update the post as time goes on, this is a VERY-long-term project.

Added all the peaks, ridges, survey points which were on land in quadrants R60-05 and R60-011. Added capes, fixed lake names and added missing homes (how anyone can live there is beyond me). Tommorrow I will focus on adding rivers, the survey points along the rivers, adding the singular road and the rest of the capes

First, have you studied the license of these maps?

Secondly, these maps are outdated. There is an up-to-date official source for geographical names. Only, please, without automatic import.

@TrickyFoxy Thank you for the info! I checked the changes I’ve made so far against the GCGN to make sure it’s correct.

I planned to use the maps not to copy the information directly from them, but use them as a source to find for example unmapped rivers or settlements. I will check the names for those features in the GCGN from now on.

I understand the map is 40 years old and many of the things can be outdated, that’s why I check with Google Earth/Satellite Imagery/and now GCGN before adding anything.
