No other commercial mapping covers the entirety of Iraq at the level of detail offered by EVC. For most areas of Iraq, this dataset is available at the 1:50,000 scale. This includes all major cities, most populated and high-traffic areas, and all of the northern Kurdish areas. For the remainder, the dataset is constructed from best-available source materials, which are typically 1:100,000 scale. The major basins in the area (Kirkuk, and Manjoon, etc.) are covered.
All feature names and attributes are in English. This is widely-accessible, richly-detailed, and GIS-ready vector data. The thematic data layers include all features typically found on a topographic map, including geographical feature names.
