- Handbook of topographic mapmaking practice intended for the guidance of cartographers and draughtsmen engaged in the cartographic production of topographic maps of Australia.
- Accompanying maps illustrate draft mapping specifications compiled for consideration for adoption by National Mapping Council as national topographic specifications at scales in range 1:25 000 to 1:250 000. Sample maps depict cultural, relief, drainage and vegetation information in accordance with specifications at scales of 1:250,000, 1:100,000, 1:50,000 and 1:25,000.
- "These draft specifications have been produced by Western Australia for the purpose of rationalizing and integrating a diversity of practices and standards that have arisen since the introduction and adoption of a common mapping system throughout the various mapping authorities in Australia. They are also intended to provide for the presently evoloving changes in cartographic methodology, particularly in respect to the adoption of computer technology."--Foreword.
- Foreward is signed John J Morgan, Surveyor General of Western Australia.
