Integrated regional geographic atlases

K. A. Salishchev · 1964

The author reviews work on atlases of Soviet republics and oblasts published in 1961–64, containing maps on physical geography, population, economy and culture. He finds that these atlases suffer from a lack of practical purposefulness and inadequate coordination. These weaknesses are to be remedied in a new coordinated project of natural-resource atlases of the major republics and economic regions of the USSR initiated in 1963.

This paper reviews the Atlas of the Ukrainian SSR and Moldavian SSR, published in Moscow in 1962. Edited by B. G. Bondarchuk, Director of the Institute of Geography of the Ukrainian Academy of Sciences, this medium-sized regional atlas contains approximately 130 maps at various scales. Its content covers physical geography, industry, agriculture, and economic regionalization, with economic-administrative district maps at 1:1,500,000 scale providing detailed regional economic structures. The atlas includes brief introductory texts, development prospects to 1980, and detailed commentaries on selected maps.
