| ALL |
The physical characteristics of a cartographic material other than a globe. Field 007 is valid in all formats so you can code for the physical characteristics of the parts of an item such as accompanying material. |
| MAP |
Use for all maps, including atlases. Do not use for map microforms. Use field 007 microforms for map microforms. Do not use for globes. Use field 007 globes for globes. |
| VIS |
Use for maps that are components of a kit. |

Subfields |
|
| ǂa Category of material |
A one-character alphabetic code that indicates the category of material to which the item belongs is map.
| a |
Map. Item is a map, which is all cartographic material other than a globe. Use code a for single maps, map series, map serials, and atlases. |
|
| ǂb Specific material designation |
A one-character alphabetic code that describes the special class of material (usually the class of physical object) to which an item belongs (e.g., a diagram).
| d |
Atlas. An atlas contains maps, related text, and other cartographic information. |
| g |
Diagram. A diagram is a graphic representation of numerical data or of the course or results of an action or process. Use also for a map characterized by much simplified, or schematic, representation. |
| j |
Map. A map is two-dimensional representation normally to scale and on a flat medium, of a selection of material or abstract features on, or in relation to, the surface of the earth or of another celestial body. |
| k |
Profile. A profile is a scale representation of the intersection of a vertical surface (which may or may not be a plane) with the surface of the ground, or of the intersection of such a vertical surface with that of a conceptual three-dimensional model representing phenomena having a continuous distribution (e.g., rainfall). |
| q |
Model. A model is a three-dimensional representation of a real item, either of the exact size of the original or to scale. |
| r |
Remote-sensing image. A remote-sensing image is produced by a recording device not in physical or intimate contact with the object under study. |
| s |
Section. A section is a scaled representation of a vertical surface (commonly a plane) displaying both the profile where it intersects the surface of the ground or some conceptual model and the underlying structures along the plane of intersection (e.g., geological section). |
| u |
Unspecified. The specific material designation is not specified. |
| y |
View. A view is a perspective representation of the landscape in which detail is shown as if projected onto an oblique plane. |
| z |
Other. None of the other codes is appropriate. |
 |
No attempt to code |
|
| ǂd Color |
The color characteristics of the map.
| a |
One color. The map is one color. |
| c |
Multicolor. The map is multicolored. |
|
No attempt to code |
|
| ǂe Physical medium |
The material out of which the cartographic item is made.
| a |
Paper. The material is any kind of cellulose-based paper. |
| b |
Wood. The material is wood. Material which is based on wood particles or fibers may or may not be considered wood. Consider particle board to be wood. |
| c |
Stone. The material is stone. |
| d |
Metal. The material is metal. |
| e |
Synthetic. Man-made substances other than textiles, plastic, and vinyl. Formerly, this code included plastic and vinyl in its definition. |
| f |
Skin. Excludes leather, parchment, and vellum. Synthetic materials that are made to resemble animal skin are coded as synthetic. Formerly, this code included parchment, leather, and vellum in its definition. |
| g |
Textile. The material is textile. Use for all fabrics whether made from natural or synthetic fibers. |
| i |
Plastic. The material is plastic. |
| j |
Glass. The material is glass. |
| l |

| p |
Plaster. The material is plaster. Use also for mixtures of ground solids and plaster. |
| q |
Flexible base photographic medium, positive. The material is a flexible base photographic medium designed to render a positive image. |
| r |
Flexible base photographic medium, negative. The material is a flexible base photographic medium designed to render a negative image. |
| s |
Non-flexible base photographic medium, positive. The material is a non-flexible base photographic medium designed to render a positive image. |
| t |
Non-flexible base photographic medium, negative. The material is a non-flexible base photographic medium designed to render a negative image. |
| u |
Unknown. The physical medium of the map is not known. |
| v |
Leather. Animal skin dressed for use. |
| w |
Parchment. Skin of a sheep or goat prepared for writing on. |
| y |
Other photographic material. The material is a photographic material other than those coded by one of the more specific codes q, r, s, and t. |
| z |
Other. None of the other codes is appropriate. |
|
No attempt to code |
|
| ǂf Type of reproduction |
Whether the cartographic item is a facsimile or other type of reproduction.

| n |
Not applicable. The item is not a reproduction. |
| u |
Unknown. The type of reproduction is not known. |
| z |
Other. None of the other codes is appropriate. |
|
No attempt to code |
|
| ǂg Production/ reproduction details |
The photographic technique used to produce the cartographic image.
| a |
Photocopy, blueline print. The map is a photocopy, blue line print composed of blue lines on a white background. Bluelines are made from vellum, film positives, or any translucent or transparent original on which an image has been made and reproduced by the whiteprint process. |
| b |
Photocopy. The map is a photocopy of the original. |
| c |
Pre-production. The map is a pre-production (proof) copy intended for review. |

Unknown. The production/reproduction details are not known. |
| z |
Other. None of the other codes is appropriate. |
|

|
| ǂh Positive/negative aspect |
The positive/negative aspect of the photocopy or film of the cartographic item. This characteristic is also referred to as polarity.
| a |
Positive. The polarity is positive (i.e., the images are dark on a light background). |
| b |
Negative. The polarity is negative (i.e., the images are light on a dark background). |
