matters as the number of colours nsed, depiction oi vegetation limits and
alcpiction of coastline.

2. The Royal Thai Survcy Department hnve agreed that the jmction with theu
I:50,00U Series L708, covering THAIL-AND, will he a t OBDSO'N. This ensures

GRID
13. There are three grids a t present involved in this a m :

(a) The Malayan Recti5ed Skew Orthomorphle (RSO) :

Thia is the grid of the projection of t.he Series which r i l l eventually super-
sede the Johore and Malny grids. The RSO grid with relevant data will
be printed in BL4CK.

lb) The Johore Cassini Glld :

This grid eextenda South from 0'2'15'N and E a t of 102'45'E. I t will be
used until superseded. With relevant grid data it will he printed in RED.

(0) The Malay Casini Grid :

This grid extends over the remainder of the Seriea North and West of the
Joltore C-ini Grid. It will be used until superseded. With relevant
grid data it will be printed in P U R P L E .

I . Each gxid will be drawn a t 1,000 yds interval \iritIi escll 10,000 yd grid line
tltickened.

GRATICULE NUMBERING
I A gratieule h m will he dnrwn inside the border of the map (see Annex 'B').
On this gratieule :-
(a) Evrry even minute will he infilled.

(b) E v w y 05' interval will be numbered in d e p e e s and minutes with each

nunlbered latitude gratieule nearest t o the sheet c3rners also showing
"Ltt N" helore t h e values.

(a) "E.of Greenwich" will follow the 05' Longitude value nearest to the SW
corner of the sheet.

GRlD NUMBERING

16. (a) Grid ultmbera will he shown in the margin agsinst every grid line. 1.5mm
fiom the neat line. It will mnsiat of two figures only, i.e. the "thousands
of yards" fipres, with the exception of every 10,000 yards where the full

10,000 gd rasting line and those on the elsting liuea 6.000 yda North of
each 10.000 yds no~thingline. (See Annex 'B').Where m y particular
gnd numlxr obscures importmE d2tail or cnonoc be easily seen because
of the density of detail, i t may be omitted or slightly displaced.
