Atlases generally contain maps, related text, and other cartographic information.

Map characterized by simplified, or schematic, representation.

Diagrams are graphic representations of numerical data, or of the course or results of an action or process.

Two-dimensional map.

Defined as a representation normally to scale and on a flat medium, of a selection of material or abstract features on, or in relation to, the surface of the earth or of another celestial body.

Scale representation of the intersection of a vertical surface (which may or may not be a plane) with the surface of the ground or with that of a conceptual three-dimensional model of phenomena having continuous distribution (e.g., rainfall).

Three-dimensional representation of a real object.

Object may be the exact size of the original or to scale.

Image produced by a recording device that is not in physical or intimate contact with the object under study.

Scaled representation of a vertical surface (commonly a plane) displaying both the the intersection profile or some conceptual model, and the underlying structures, e.g., geological section.

Perspective representation of the landscape shown as if it were projected onto an oblique plane.

None of the other codes is appropriate.

Any kind of cellulose-based paper.

Material which is based on wood particles or fibers may or may not be considered wood. Consider particle board wood.

Material is a non-flexible base photographic medium designed to render a negative image.

Animal skin dressed for use.

Skin of a sheep or goat prepared for writing on.

Physical medium is not applicable to remote digital cartographic resources because it pertains to characteristics specific to physical aspects of carriers.

Photographic medium other than those covered by one of the more specific codes q, r, s, and t.

Physical medium for which none of the other codes is appropriate.

Film copy of the original.

Production/reproduction details are not known.
