Resource Abstract:
The International Map of the World (IMW) series is no longer maintained, and printed copies of this map are no longer available.
The Australian portion of the series consists of 49 maps. They were produced to an international specification using the R502
series at 1:250,000 scale as source material. Production commenced in 1926 and was completed in 1978. The maps were revised
from time to time and the last reprint was undertaken in 2003. Each standard map sheet covers 4 degrees of latitude by 6 degrees
of longitude and was produced using a Lambert Conformal Conic projection with 2 standard parallels. The series has recently
been superseded by the 1:1 000 000 topographic map general reference.
