Atlases
The National Atlas of the Physical Environment
(285876) was published in 1981 by the Secretariat for
Planning and Budget (SPP) in Mexico City. The atlas
contains maps at the scale of 1:1,000,000 on 10
subjects plus Landsat coverage at the same scale.
Subjects include topography, administration, weather
and climate, geology, soils, and tourist attractions of
various types.)
In 1982 the SPP published an atlas titled Map of
Mexico 1:250,000 (286431), which contains 132 plates
of topographic maps covering all of Mexico at the
stated scale. The maps have also been issued as
separate sheets and are discussed in more detail in the
section on topographic maps (see page 3). F-]
The General Bureau of Agriculture published an atlas
in 1980 titled Land Use in the Republic of Mexico
(287102), which indicates 49 categories of land use
throughout the country. Each state is mapped at the
scale of 1:500,000 or 1:1,000,000. F-]
An Atlas of Health (242935) was published in 1973
by the Secretariat of Health and Welfare. It contains
an impressive collection of information in the form of
text, maps, and charts that shows and explains the
many factors affecting the health of the Mexican
population.)
In 1980 the SPP began producing a set of atlases on
the individual states of Mexico titled Synthesis of
Geography. Each atlas contains 13 unbound, detailed,
thematic maps on topics such as topography, climatol-
ogy, hydrology, geology, soils, forestry, and agricul-
ture. The scales vary depending on the size of the
state and range from 1:250,000 to 1,000,000. The
following atlases have been published to date:

A Geographic Atlas of the State of Michoacan
(274087) was published in 1979 by the National
University in Mexico City. It is of excellent quality
and provides detailed coverage for a number of sub-
jects related to physical, human, or economic geogra-
phy. Each thematic map is supplemented by a de-
scriptive text and color photographs. Approximately
half of the atlas is devoted to detailed topographic
maps of the municipios (cities and towns) in Michoa-
can. They are at the scale of 1:224,000 and show
populated places, roads and railroads, drainage, and
political boundaries.)

In 1980 the Treasury of the Federal District in
Mexico City published the Album of Cadastral Re-
gions of the City of Mexico and Urban Zones of the
Federal District (289973). This atlas contains detailed
maps showing the street pattern and street names for
85 regions of the Federal District. Unfortunately, no
street index is provided. n
An atlas titled Routes of Mexico (287038) contains a
number of foldout strip maps covering the country at
the scale of 1:250,000. It has an alphabetical listing of
towns that gives information on population, altitude,
and available accommodations, as well as a descrip-
tion of major points of interest. It was published in
1981 by the National Automobile Association (ANA)
in Mexico City. F-1
The Yellow Guide to Mexico City (287040) was
published by ANA in 1983. It contains 15 pages
strip maps covering the city at a scale of 1:24,000.
The atlas has an index of streets and minor political
divisions within the city. Metro stops are indicated on
the maps, and a schematic map of the entire Metro
system is shown on the atlas cover. Points of interest,
major buildings, parks, and important landmarks are
indicated on the maps but not listed in the index.
Guidebooks
Two current guidebooks of Mexico are held in the
Map Services Division. Both contain a wealth of
information on all aspects of travel in Mexico and,
with minor variations, are essentially the same. They
outline the general history and culture of Mexico and
provide descriptions of major physical regions, the
road network, and related points of interest. They also
describe accommodations, restaurants, and places of
entertainment. Probably the best known is Fodor 's
Mexico 1985 (299465), published in New York by
Fodor's Travel Guides. The second is Fielding 's Mex-
ico 1984 (291549), published by Fielding's Travel
Books, also in New York. The major difference
between the two is that the print in the Fielding's
guide is larger and easier to read.F--]
Two other guides, both published in 1982 in Spanish,
are also worthy of mention. Both are titled The
Tourist Guide of the Republic of Mexico and are high
quality publications aimed at the tourist market. One
(288298) was published by Red Guide in Mexico City
and the other (287004) by the ANA.F--]
Other Publications
In 1982 the SPP published the Tenth General Census
on Population and Housing 1980. Volume I consists
of 32 sections, each devoted to a state in Mexico. The
sections are intended for use with other parts of the
1980 census, and each contains a map of every
municipio showing Geostatistical Basic Areas, the
basic statistical unit of the census. The maps indicate
major populated places and identify the 1:50,000
topographic sheets that cover each municipio. Each of
the 32 sections is cataloged separately by area with
individual accession numbers. A second part of the
section delineates the Geostatistical Basic Areas with-
in major urban centers. 0
Briefing and General Reference Maps
Two CIA-produced maps of Mexico (503497 and
503498) published in 1978 at the scale of 1:4,000,000
(17 by 24 inches) show first-order administrative
boundaries, national and state capitals, roads, air-
fields, and principal ports. Map 503497 also shows
shaded relief and spot elevations. In 1981 CIA pub-
lished two page-size maps of Mexico at the scale of
1:13,000,000 (504704 with shaded relief and 504703
without shaded relief). Both show state boundaries
and capitals and major roads and railroads. In 1983
John Bartholomew & Son, Ltd., of Edinburgh, Scot-
land, produced an excellent map of Mexico (293015)
at the scale of 1:3,000,000 (32 x 42 inches) that is
suitable for general reference

1984 the National Geographic Society produced a
comparable map (297530) at the slightly smaller scale
of 1:3,803,000 (23 by 34 inches). Both maps show
internal administrative boundaries, road classifica-
tions, railroads, airports, spot elevations, antiquities,
topography, and bathymetry. The Bartholomew map
is perhaps more useful in that it uses layer coloring to
show elevation and has two insets showing details in
and around Mexico City. F_1
populated places, major and secondary roads, rail-
roads, and selected types of land use. The magnetic
declination and annual magnetic variation are both
overprinted on this map.n
Topographic Maps
Approximately 60-65 percent of Mexico is covered by
topographic maps at the scale of 1:50,000 in nearly
1,500 sheets published by the General Bureau of
Geography (DGG) in Mexico City (210926). In addi-
tion to detailed topography, the maps show transpor-
tation and communication lines, ground cover, and
various other cultural and natural features; they also
classify towns and villages by size of population. The
maps have contour intervals of 20 meters, show the
Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) grid, and are
dated from 1971 to 1981. These maps do not cover the
Mexico is completely covered by 121 topographic
maps (254741) at the scale of 1:250,000 published by
the DGG between 1976 and 1982. These sheets were
also printed in bound format (286431), as mentioned
in the section on atlases. The sheets show lines of
communication, ground cover, and various cultural
features. The UTM grid is indicated, and the contour
interval is 100 meters, with supplementary contours at

Administration and Boundaries. The National Atlas
of the Physical Environment (285876) mentioned on
page 1 contains detailed maps showing administrative
subdivisions in Mexico. The plates in the atlas are at
the scale of 1:1,000,000, and they show administrative
units to the municipio level. The administrative center
of each unit is named. F

In 1969 the US-Mexican Commission for Border
Development and Friendship produced a map titled
US-Mexico Border Area (203986) at a scale of
1:2,500,000, which depicts the international bound-
ary, adjacent populated places, selected roads and
railroads, internal administrative boundaries, and
ports of entry between the two countries. n
In 1981 the Secretariat for Maritime Affairs pub-
lished a map (288549) of the coastal waters of Mexico
titled Exclusive Economic Zones for the Coasts of
Mexico. It shows only the limit of the economic zone
and does not provide any explanation beyond the map
title. Presumably, it delineates the areas claimed by
Mexico for fishing, oil exploration, and similar eco-
nomic activities. The scale of the map is 1:3,700,000.
The MSD collection also contains historical maps,
charts, and photomaps of the US-Mexican border
that deal with various water and flood control projects
or with realignment of the boundary due to course
changes in the Rio Grande. Most of these items are
dated from the late 1920s to the 1940s. F-1
Agriculture, Land Use, and Vegetation. The 1980
atlas titled Land Use in the Republic of Mexico
(287102) that was mentioned on page 1 portrays 46
categories of land use in Mexico. There are three
categories for agriculture, 39 for natural vegetation,
two for unused land, and one each for urban areas and
water bodies. Each state is shown at either
1:1,000,000 or 1:500,000 scale, and each map is
accompanied by a table and graph showing the num-
ber of hectares falling into each category. F-1
An eight-sheet map titled Map of Soils and Vegeta-
tion (286885) at the scale of 1:1,000,000 was pub-
lished by the DGG in 1981. The map is similar to the
plates in the land use atlas mentioned above, but it
covers all of the country in eight large sheets instead
of showing one state per page as the atlas does. The
soils and vegetation categories are depicted by color
tints, and each has an explanation of the interaction of
soil, vegetation, and climate. A map titled Actual Soil
Use (287104) was published in 1981 by the Commis-
sion for the National Hydraulic Plan in Mexico City.
It shows areas of irrigated and nonirrigated croplands
and land used for pasture and nonagricultural pur-
poses (i.e., woodlands and urban areas). This map does
not have a scale indicated. Another map, titled Loca-
tion of Irrigation Districts (287106), was published in
1982 by the General Bureau of Irrigation Districts
and Units in Mexico City. It is at the scale of
1:3,500,000, shows the locations of irrigation districts,
and identifies each district office. It also locates
catchment basins throughout the country. F-1
A small map of Mexico titled Organizational Types
for Agricultural Space and Agrarian Structures
(237876) was published by Bordas (Paris) in 1973. It
divides the country into zones of intensive and exten-
sive economies and indicates the types and locations
of major plantations. Irrigation districts are also
listed, along with the main crop and number of
hectares in each. No scale is shown on the map.n
The ninth edition of The Modern Geography of
Mexico was published in 1980 by Editorial F. Trillas
S.A. in Mexico City. It contains four maps depicting
the growing areas for 11 major crops and graphs
showing the crop production in each state from 1950
to 1976. The maps have no scale indicated. The crops
mapped are wheat and hay (274699); peanuts, sesame,
and tobacco (274850); lemons, rice, and tomatoes
(274851); and sugar cane, cotton, and pineapple
(274852). An earlier work by Editorial Trillas titled
Geographic Synthesis of Mexico was published in
1972. It is a set of six maps (222264) that show areas
of cultivation for 16 major crops.)
In 1982 the World Bank produced a map (289976) of
Mexico titled Agricultural Marketing of Perishables
at the scale of 1:8,000,000, which indicates the major
crops grown in each state. Also identified are irrigated
areas and the five major marketing centers for various
agricultural regions.__~
In the 1950s the Secretariat for Water Resources
published a series of detailed maps (127096) of Mexi-
co showing vegetation, water resources, and agricul-
tural patterns. The series consists of about 600 sheets

and is at the scale of 1:100,000. Coverage is approxi-
mately 95 percent complete, and although the infor-
mation is over 25 years old, it may be of some value in
the absence of more current data.n
Climate. The Atlas of Health (242935) mentioned on
page 1 includes 25 pages of maps and text on various
aspects of climate in Mexico and their effect on
human health. Maps portray temperature ranges,
frost, cloudiness, precipitation, and humidity. Wind
roses and a discomfort index are also provided.)
In 1981 the SPP produced an eight-sheet climate map
(283829) of the country at the scale of 1:1,000,000.
The map uses a modified Koppen classification to
present a detailed survey of the climate of Mexico.
The base map on which the climatic information is
overprinted shows populated places, major lines of
transportation, political boundaries, and topography
using contour lines of 200 meters. The SPP published
another eight-sheet map in 1981 that shows precipita-
tion (297740). It indicates precipitation in millimeters
by isohyets and colored patternsf
Health. The Atlas of Health (242935) mentioned
above presents an exhaustive survey of many sociolog-
ical factors affecting health, including population
density, climate, nutrition, economics, education, and
housing and services, as well as showing maps of
mortality rates, morbidity or sickness, birth rates, and
medical facilities. The atlas also contains maps and
charts that provide more details on important aspects

Minerals and Geology. The Office of the Director
General of Mines published three maps in 1981 that
name and locate the principal production centers for
various metals (287828) and minerals (287829) and
show the locations of associated processing plants
(297829). These maps have no scale indicated. The
maps of metal and mineral production are accompa-
nied by tables that give production statistics by state
and municipio for the years 1979 and 1980. Graphs
accompanying the map of processing plants provide
company names, plant capacities, types of treatment,
and the form of finished products. A separate graph
gives annual production figures for 27 minerals from
1891 to 1980. Also available is a 1975 metallogenetic
chart of Mexico (259372) at the scale of 1:2,000,000
that was produced by the Geological Society of
America. This map uses a combination of symbols
and color to depict metallogenetic environments, types
of ore deposits, and their geologic age. F1
A small map at the scale of 1:12,500,000 published by
the Association of Mining Engineers, Metallurgists,
and Geologists of Mexico is titled Exploration of
Coal Reserves in Mexico (289942). It locates and
names 35 coal-mining regions and identifies the type
of coal mined at each. The date of information on the
map is July 1976.1
An eight-sheet map of the geology of Mexico (286884)
was published by the DGG in 1981 at the scale of
1:1,000,000. It portrays the geologic history and rock
types of the country in detail through the use of color
tints and symbols.) -I
Peoples. In 1965 the Geographic Institute of the
National University produced a set of four maps
(187445) at the scale of 1:4,000,000 titled Distribu-
tion of Urban Population at Altitudes Between 0-200,
200-1,000, 1,000-2,000, and 2,000-3,000 Meters. It
locates and names populated places and indicates the
population of each. Altitude is indicated by color tints.
Several ethnic and linguistic maps of Mexico are
available in the MSD collection. A map published by
Editorial F. Trillas in 1980 at the scale of 1:6,200,000
is titled Ethnographic Map of the Republic of Mexico
(274698) and shows the locations of 49 tribal groups.
A 1967 Trillas map shows the 14 principal linguistic
groups in the country (187236). It has no scale
indicated. The General Bureau of Statistics produced
a set of two maps (199120) at the scale of 1:2,550,000
that shows linguistics in Mexico based on the 1960
census. The first is titled Map of Bilingual Indigenous
Population, shows density at the municipio level, and
has enlarged inset maps of the more densely populat-
ed areas. The second map is similar in format and is
titled Map of Monolingual Population. Another map
titled Principal Indian Languages was published by
the University of Arizona in 1966 at the scale of
1:5,800,000. It outlines and names major tribal areas
(1813'76). F-]
Power. A set of 13 detailed maps (263361) published
by the Federal Electric Commission in 1975 is titled
Generating Plants and Service Areas. The maps
locate all major power plants in the country, and
accompanying text provides the plant names, kilowatt
capacity, and types of generators used in each.)

Railroads. The Secretariat for Communications and
Transportation published two railroad maps in 1982.
The first, Railroad Network of the Republic of
Mexico (287843), is at the scale of 1:3,000,000. It
indicates active lines, those under construction, and
distances in kilometers between key points. The sec-
ond map is titled simply National Railroad Network
(287842). It shows the same data as the previous map
but also shows the boundaries of the 22 railroad
districts. Another product of the SCT is titled Volume
of Cargo Trctfc and consists of a pair of schematic
maps (262846) that show the gross and net monthly
tonnages carried by various rail lines throughout
Mexico. The maps have no scale indicated. F-1
Roads. Several road maps dated 1983 are held in the
MSD collection. The best of these (295279) was
published by the SCT and is titled Tourist Road
Map. It shows a detailed primary and secondary road
network and indicates such features as parks, service
stations, ferries, and monuments. It also has an
enlarged inset map of the area around Mexico City,
which extends to the city of Veracruz on the Gulf of
Mexico. Another inset shows distances and estimated
driving times throughout the country. The reverse side
of the map shows a plan of Mexico City and six other
important tourist centers. A table of tourist informa-
tion lists accommodations and services available at 85
locations. F__1
Telecommunications. A 1980 map (287833) published
by the SCT provides an overall view of existing
communications systems in Mexico, including micro-

A map of Mexico dated at the sca e o
1:9,000,000 indicates favorable areas for locating
underground water supplies. It was produced by the
National University in Mexico City and employs
shading to highlight favorable areas. A simple map of
watersheds (196492) is also available that indicates
the direction and destination of the flow of ground
water of the major watersheds of Mexico.
Mexico City. In 1981 SAHOP published an eight-
sheet map (295289) of Mexico City at the scale of
1:25,000. It includes most of the suburban areas;
shows detailed street patterns, road categories, and
contours at intervals of 50 meters; and is accompanied
by a map supplement that locates over 1,000 points of
interest. Unfortunately, the map does not have a
street index. F-1

Guide at the scale of 1:32,500 and is titled City of
Mexico (280637). Another, at the scale of 1:33,000
(274498), was published by Libreria Patria S.A., and
the third was published by ANA at the scale of
1:40,000 (262659). All have a common deficiency in
that they are extremely detailed and somewhat diffi-
cult to read because of the relatively small scales that
must be used to provide complete coverage in one
sheet of this large urban area.)
