VMap1 Global Geospatial Intelligence Agency Shapefiles

<-- Geospatial Data Shapefile Downloads

ESRI ArcGIS ( Arc - GIS ) shapefiles are the industry standard and work with most all GIS programs including ESRI ArcView, ArcExplorer, ArcGIS, and Maptitude, Mapinfo, Manifold, Mapwindow, Mapguide and other free and open source software applications. Each shapefile set includes: roads, buildings, natural features, places, points of interest, railways, and waterways.

If you are new to GIS and shapefiles and want to learn more about cartography and digital geography, check this brief introduction. Also, you can use our free Learn2Map GIS Tutorial & Atlas and included free software to create your own GIS projects viewing and combining these and other free ArcGIS shapefiles.

VMap1 data in shape-format

VMap1 data is related to VMap0 dataset. VMap1 is created based on Joint Operation Graphics (JOG) maps of 1:250'000 scale, which by the level of detail is roughly coincide with 1:500'000 scale topographic maps of Soviet topographic series.

VMap1 data is distributed in VPF format for the part of the globe and freely downloadable via National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency. Other tiles were not distributed freely when this article was written.

VMap1 shapefiles

The website provides access to this data in ESRI shape format. Data is distributed by tiles.

About data

Data is imported from VPF format, each layer has associated legend file in avl format (usable with Arcview GIS and importable in ArcGIS). Coordinate system fikes (prj) for the layers can be downloaded separately. Data for Russia is the copy of world tiles that intersect Russia's border with coordinate system changed from WGS84 to Pulkovo 1942 using 3 parameters daturm transformation used by NIMA
