Topographic Map TMS
Support in mapping geographical features provides the Tile Map Service, which serves topographic maps for northern Laos. These topographic maps from the 1960ies were made by the US Army Map Service in the scales of 1:200000 and 1:50000. Meanwhile these maps are released to the public domain and available at the University of Texas Libraries.
The tile map service is accessible at:
