This map is part of a series of full-color maps of selected major cities of the USSR produced in the 1970s-80s
from data by the Soviet Federal Agency for Geodesy and Cartography (GUGK). The maps were printed at 1:10,000 scale,
clearly showing the footprints of individual buildings and other man-made and natural features,
with topographic contours. Many maps include multiple sheets with full street name indexes in the Russian language.
