Dimensions and designation of ZM 100 are derived from map sheet of Base Map of the Czech Republic 1:200,000 by dividing into four parts. The name of the map sheet is usually the same as the name of the largest place (by population) displayed on the map sheet.
The territory of the Czech Republic is captured on 59 map sheets. The dimensions of paper of the map are 62 x 46 cm, the map face, which in average shows an area of 1820 km2, has a trapezoidal shape with a height of 38 cm and a length of bases from 47.03 to 49.22 cm.
The first edition of map sheets was carried out from 1978 to 1981. Updating is done subsequently after updating of ZM 50, as its small copy. ZM 100 contains planimetry, altimetry and map lettering. The subjects of planimetry are settlements and individual objects, roads, hydrography, boundaries of administration units and boundaries of cadastre units (including technical units of territory), boundaries of protected areas, vegetation and surface of the land. The subject of altimetry is terrain relief displayed by contours, the contour interval is 20 m. Map lettering consists of names of objects, standardized geographical names, spot heights, frame and marginal informations. The map sheets contain planar rectangular grid (S- JTSK) and geographical graticule (ETRS89). Each map sheet contains map legend with the selection of the most used map symbols.
