Gizi Map coverage extends well beyond the country's boundaries to include the other four Central Asian countries: Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan and Turkmenistan, as well as part of western China, the northern half of Afghanistan and a large part of Iran.
Includes: area's rail and road networks, including dirt tracks, and give driving distances on major roads. Local administrative boundaries are marked and names of provinces are shown. All place names are translated, with alternative versions provided where necessary, particularly in the border areas.
The map has altitude colouring to provide an excellent picture of the area's topography. Index of localities is on the reverse of the map. This revised edition uses a slightly different, more recently adopted transliteration than the political version of this map.
