This type of map is based on the scale of the relevant topographical map while considering the size of the geopark. The coordinates of the boundary of the park are measured by surveying and GPS, and they are labelled and marked on the drawings. The map should be the official size approved by government and can be used as a base for reference or calculation of the size of the geopark. The border of the geopark is marked by red dots, and the boundary of its scenic district is marked by a solid red line. The inflection coordinates of the geopark boundary are marked on the boundary, and a list of the inflection coordinates is attached to the bottom of the map.
