Estonian Basic Map



The Estonian Basic Map is a seamless digital topographic database covering the whole territory of Estonia. It contains information on utilities (roads, electric power lines, etc.), settlement, hydrography, place names and land use. The accuracy and content corresponds to the mapping scale of 1:10 000. The used projection is L-EST97 (epsg:3301).

Data is available in following formats: vector (MicroStation DGN - updates until 2007, MapInfo TAB - updates until April 2011, ESRI GDB - updates until April 2011), raster (GeoTIFF) - updates until April 2011
There are total of 2071 sheets (5*5km each).
Each year some part of Estonian territory is updated (data updates affect all spatial layers). Roads, buildings and water network (and sometimes land use) objects will be updated routinely by Estonian Land Board employees. The following figure is showing the temporal extent of the Estonian Basic Map in digital format as it is available at present time.
