These street maps generally include topographic contour lines and spot heights to show elevation. Major buildings, including government, police, university, and military, are numbered and identified in the margins. Most maps have a street index in the margins. Nearly all maps have a UTM grid and latitude/longitude tickmarks along the margins. Some maps, noted below, use an air photo mosaic as a base map. These photomaps typically lack elevation information. Typically in either English only or bilingual including English.

Laos 1:500,000 Topographic maps (TPC charts). 1:500,000. NGA (NIMA). Military topographic survey mapping covering about 80% of the world's land masses and significant islands. TPC stands for Tactical Pilotage Chart. These maps are designed primarily as flying charts for military aircraft, but they are useful as general topographical maps where nothing else is available.
Relief is portrayed by a combination of contours (basic interval 500ft, intermediate contours shown where appropriate), elevation tinting and relief shading. Spot heights are also marked. Towns, villages, major roads, railways and airports are shown but note that many of the smaller settlements are not named, and the road information is not necessarily up to date, as compilation and revision dates vary. Some air navigation information also appears on the map, such as radio beacons and restricted flying zones. Please note that in some areas of Africa and South America localised deficiencies or inconsistencies in the survey data at the time of compilation of these maps has resulted in little or no elevation shown or even blank spaces with no detail at all.
To a varying extent, adjacent sheets overlap, but due to the map projection, and the fact that the colours used for relief portrayal are not absolutely constant throughout the series, assembling these sheets to make a larger map may result in mismatched edges. However, for those countries where little else is available, these English-language charts are quite useful.

Laos 1:1,000,000 Topographic maps (ONC charts). 1:1,000,000. NGA (NIMA). Military topographic survey mapping covering the world's land masses and significant islands with about 270 sheets. ONC stands for Operational Navigation Chart. These maps are designed primarily as flying charts for military aircraft, but they are useful as general topographical maps where nothing else is available.
Relief is portrayed by a combination of contours (basic interval 1000ft, intermediate contours shown where appropriate), elevation tinting and relief shading. Spot heights are also given. Towns, villages, major roads, railways and airports are shown but please note that many of the smaller settlements are not named, and the road information is not necessarily up to date, as compilation and revision dates vary. Some air navigation information also appears on the map, such as radio beacons and restricted flying zones. It should also be noted that in some areas of central parts of Africa and South America localised deficiencies or inconsistencies in the survey data at the time of compilation of these maps has resulted in little or no elevation shown or even blank spaces with no detail at all.
To a varying extent, adjacent sheets overlap, but due to the nature of the map projection and the fact that the colours used for relief portrayal are not absolutely constant throughout the series, assembling these sheets to make a larger map is not recommended.
