Cartographic materials other than globes.
Special class of cartographic material to which the resource belongs.
Map characterized by simplified, or schematic, representation.
Two-dimensional map.
Scale representation of the intersection of a vertical surface (which may or may not be a plane) with the surface of the ground or with that of a conceptual three-dimensional model of phenomena having continuous distribution (e.g., rainfall).
Three-dimensional representation of a real object.
Image produced by a recording device that is not in physical or intimate contact with the object under study.
Scaled representation of a vertical surface (commonly a plane) displaying both the the intersection profile or some conceptual model, and the underlying structures, e.g., geological section.
Perspective representation of the landscape shown as if it were projected onto an oblique plane.
Contains a blank (#) or a fill character (|).
Whether the item is in one color or multicolored.
Material out of which the cartographic item is made.
Any kind of cellulose-based paper.

Man-made substances other than textiles, plastic, and vinyl.
Excludes leather, parchment, and vellum.
Used for all fabrics, whether made from natural or synthetic fibers.
Fine-grained unsplit lambskin, kidskin, or calfskin prepared especially for writing or drawing on.
Includes mixtures of ground solids and plaster.
Material is a flexible base photographic medium designed to render a positive image.
Material is a flexible base photographic medium designed to render a negative image.
Material is a non-flexible base photographic medium designed to render a positive image.
Material is a non-flexible base photographic medium designed to render a negative image.
Skin of a sheep or goat prepared for writing on.
Physical medium is not applicable to remote digital cartographic resources because it pertains to characteristics specific to physical aspects of carriers.
Photographic medium other than those covered by one of the more specific codes q, r, s, and t.
Whether the cartographic item is a facsimile or other type of reproduction.
Technique used to produce the cartographic resource.
Has a blueline image on a white background and is reproduced by the whiteprint process.
Positive/negative aspect of the photocopy or film of the cartographic item.
Polarity is positive, i.e., lines and characters are dark on light background.
Polarity is negative, i.e., lines and characters are light on dark background.
Mixture of positive and negative images.
