Description |
English: .A triangulation diagram appears on the reverse of this drawing. This was an essential tool enabling the draughtsman to plot topographical features.

Major lines of communication are coloured yellow, following standard military cartographic convention. Trigonometrical stations are indicated by a dot with a red triangle.
