Disko Bay

Disko Bay at 1:370,000 in a series of 12 topographic maps from Saga of the coastal regions of Greenland at 1:500,000, with coverage of the central part of the western coast also available on two special sheets at 1:370,000. Both scales have the same cartography as the publisher’™s 1:250,000 series but reduced to provide a wider coverage per sheet. The reduction means that some place names, symbols and fine detail are harder to read than on maps in the original 1:250,000 series. Relief is shown by contours at 50m intervals, augmented by frequent spot heights. Main peaks are named, along with many other physical features e.g. bays and islands. Glaciers, moraine and low-lying coastal plains are also indicated and contours continue for a limited extent into the icecap region.The maps show settlements, roads, airstrips and heliports, anchorages and selected other landmarks. Lines of longitude and latitude are drawn at 1ยฐ and 15` intervals respectively. Map legend is provided in a separate leaflet.
