Introduction

The Estonian Topographic Map is a part of the online map services in windPRO. The topographic maps in 1:10000 resolution were developed by the Land Board of Estonia – and are derived from an updated geo-spatial database. For this scale, coverage is the whole of Estonia. For coarser scales maps are generated from vector maps from EuroGlobalMap.

Usage Notes

  • This map is generated from two sources:
    • Zoom-level 13-18 is a 1:10000 map was derived from source data accessed in January 2019 - from the Land Board of Estonia.
    • Zoom level 5-12 is based on a vector map - where raster-maps are generated at different scale. These maps were derived from EuroGlobalMap data covering Estonia
