National atlas of Mongolia and revision

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

In their compilation account, the authors describe the 2022 third edition of the National Atlas of Mongolia as a revision drawing on the 2009 atlas database, with statistics updated to 2020 and new research results incorporated. More than 160 specialists from approximately 30 organizations participated. Commissioned in 2019, the work was delayed by COVID-19, resumed in February 2022 and was published in Ulaanbaatar that September. The bilingual Mongolian–English atlas contains 251 pages and 246 maps, with an introductory section and four main divisions covering historical and present-day territory, natural conditions and resources, population and society, and the economy. The authors note the use of digital elevation models as backgrounds for some maps and the adoption of UTM projection under the government’s July 2022 decision on the national geodetic framework.
