Responding to the great demand of Chinese officials at all levels, the People's Republic of China Atlas of Administrative Divisions clarifies thousands of political-administrative boundaries (provincial, prefectural, county and township), and standardizes tens of thousands of geographic names. It represents a major advance in the contemporary mapping of China. Previous atlases show up to 80 percent of internal borders in a schematic, rough way because of border controversies. The detail in this atlas is stunning and is based on the culmination of years of intensive fieldwork. All boundaries depicted are generated from actual field surveys conducted from 1995 to 2002. There are hundreds of detailed maps of provinces, counties, and cities. All are based on a clearly-identified set of authoritative source materials, including (for the first time ever) China's new national digital GIS databases at 1:250,000 and 1:1,000,000 scales. Measuring 30 x 42 cm, this atlas includes hundreds of maps of China's 34 provincial (sheng) units, 333 prefectures (shi/di), 2,862 counties (xian) and about 40,000 townships (xiang), clearly showing their boundaries, geographic names, and related information. The provincial, prefectural, and county boundaries are current as of June 2005; the township boundaries are current as of December 2004
