On Prussian proposal, the production of a unified Reichskartenwerk was decided in 1878 and completed for the first time by the states of Prussia, Bavaria, Württemberg and Saxony in 1909.
The map of the German Empire 1 : 100,000 in 675 sheets is the first large-scale map work that was processed nationwide for the then Reich territory and was therefore considered for a long time as the General Staff map par excellence.
The map was designed in polyhedron projection as a degree division map and has an extension of 30 degrees geogr. Length and 15 degrees geogr. Width.
This results in an average map image format of 35 cm x 28 cm corresponding to an area of 35 km x 28 km. The map work originally appeared in a single-colour edition, a decided multi-colour edition was not completed.
