The Map of Regions of the Czech Republic 1:250 000 (MK 250) is issued as a general reference map covering the entire territory of individual regions (in the case of the Central Bohemian Region, also including the administrative district of the Capital City of Prague) as defined by the territorial administrative division of the Czech Republic. Its purpose is to provide a comprehensive view of the administrative area of the respective region and to enable users to easily orient themselves within the territory. The MK 250 covers the territory of the Czech Republic in 13 map sheets of various formats, depending on the extent and shape of individual regions. The map does not have a continuous map sheet layout (map sheets overlap). The data and graphic basis for the MK 250 consist of the geographical model Data250 for the territory of the Czech Republic and the geographical models EuroRegionalMap and EuroBoundaryMap for areas outside the Czech Republic. The terrain relief in the form of shaded relief is generated from the EuroDEM digital elevation model data. The MK 250 includes planimetry, altimetry, map lettering, and marginal and extramarginal information. Planimetry covers settlements, transport, hydrography, administrative boundaries (state, regional, district, and administrative districts of municipalities with extended competence), boundaries of large-scale specially protected areas, and vegetation and land cover (forests, marshes, peat bogs). Altimetry is represented by height points and shaded relief. Map lettering includes standardised geographical nomenclature. All content elements of the MK 250 are depicted across the entire map field of each sheet, including adjacent parts of the territories of neighbouring countries.
