A. All cells, except as noted, are shown at actual size (AS) at an object scale (OS) of 1.00 for 1" = 50' scale maps as defined for each respective cell element. Cells shall be scaled inversely proportional for other mapping scales (i.e., OS = 0.50 for 1" = 100' scale maps, OS = 0.25 for 1" = 200' scale maps, and OS = 0.125 for 1" = 400' scale maps). Thus, a specified cell size of 0.40 inches at the 1" = 50' scale would be plotted 0.20 inches at 1" = 100' scale, 0.10 inches at 1" = 200' scale, and 0.05 inches at 1" = 400' scale. All cells for point features are point cells and shall have center origins. All cells, except as noted, shall be placed horizontal relative to the bottom map margin.
B. Relatively small features such as manholes, catch basins, power poles and related objects shall be shown at a minimum exaggerated size as necessary to provide satisfactory visual interpretation on hard copy manuscript maps. The outside edges of all photo-identifiable features having dimensions in excess of the minimum size specified shall be digitized to actual scale in order to properly depict the relative size and configuration of the feature.
AUTHORITY NOTE: Promulgated in accordance with R.S. 50:171.
