Zooming and Scale
Zoom into the map from a scale of approximately 1:148,000,000 (1cm = 1,480 km) to a scale of apx. 1:1,156,000 (1cm = 11.5 km). If the map was printed at this scale, it would measure nearly 12 metres tall.
The example shown here of the operational cross-border link between Togo and Benin on CEB power lines operated by Phase 3 Telecom shows the maximum zoom level. |
