This topographic street plan of Canberra was printed in 1981 by the General Staff of the Soviet Union.
The map is in the Russian language. It is printed in 10 colours, and is extremely detailed, with a contour interval of 5 metres. Buildings are classified by their function and material, roads by their width and material, and forests and fields by tree species and leaf type. There is a short text which describes the geography and climate of the city, transport in and around the city, places of importance, and the city’s infrastructure (factories, power stations, and hospitals); and indexes to streets and major buildings.
The map was based on information dated 1960‒1977, when it records that Canberra had 235 000 inhabitants. The city now has 425 000.
