1:25,000 OR 1:50000
In terms of cartography: Sketch (maps): Roughly drawn maps which may be inaccurate but can be quickly created. Maps: Should be accurate. Can be any scale. Features are drawn in their true position (within limitations of scale). Can be topographic; thematic; political etc. Diagrams: a cross-section etc. (aerial) Photograph: can look accurate but will be at different scales in various parts of the map because of distance from camera and pitch & yaw of aircraft. Plans: very Large Scale maps showing lots of detail. maybe of a single site.
Large scale maps are enlarged maps to show cities and sometimes small towns. Small scale maps are maps shrunken down only to show countries and continents. -The person-
ordnance survey maps. maps made by the ordnance survey
On the OS Explorer series (Scale 1:25,000) of Ordnance Survey maps, a well is denoted as a small unfilled blue circle with a blue capital "W" next to it. Springs are denoted by the same circle however the letters "Spr" are used in place of "W".The smaller scale maps (i.e. showing a larger area) such as the OS Landranger series (Scale 1:50,000) do not appear detailed enough to display wells (and they do not appear in the Key).See related links.

blue prints and maps :P
a location drawn to scale
A map drawn actual size wouldn't be too convenient. Plus ... can you imagine trying to fold it ! ?
It depends on the scale to which the map has been drawn. Not all maps are the same scale.
The nouns in the sentence are:maps, subject of the sentence;scale, object of the preposition 'to'.
There are three main types of maps according to scale: small scale maps, medium scale maps, and large scale maps. Small scale maps show a large area with less detail, medium scale maps cover a moderate area with more detail, and large scale maps provide detailed information for a small area.

If details are needed (larger) smaller or fewer details (small)
