National atlas of Mongolia and revision

Ц. Наранцацрал; Б. Сайнбуян; М. Уртнасан; Р. Болдбаяр · 2022

In their comparative account of Mongolia’s national atlases, the compilers describe the 2009 National Atlas as a revision commissioned by President N. Enkhbayar’s 2008 decree, with map production concentrated at the Institute of Geography’s GIS–Cartography Laboratory. They attribute its completion in one year to GIS technology, available digital data, and the materials and experience of the first atlas. Published in Mongolian in Seoul, it has 248 pages and 256 maps in a 380 × 285 mm format. An introductory section precedes four main chapters covering ancient and modern Mongolian territory, natural conditions and resources, population and society, and the economy. Sources include maps from earlier atlases, statistics for 2007 and other years, and material from government and research institutions. The account records use of the Gauss–Krüger projection (Pulkovo 1942) and digital elevation models as backgrounds for some maps.
