Maps can be classified based on scale into small scale maps and large scale maps. Small scale maps show important information over larger areas like world maps and country maps. Large scale maps provide detailed information for small areas like village maps and cadastral maps which show land boundaries and ownership details. Topographical maps also fall under large scale maps and provide terrain and elevation details.
