small-scale chart/drawing Explanation: http://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Escala_cartográfica Uma escala 1:100 000 lê-se: escala um por cem mil, o que significa dizer que a superfície representada foi reduzida em 100 mil vezes. Nesse caso, 1 cm no mapa = 100 000 cm = 1 000 m = 1 km na realidade Escalas como 1:25000, 1:10000, 1:2500 são usadas para trabalhos de maior detalhe, como o mapeamento de corpos mineralizados, mapas turísticos de uma cidade, estudos geotécnicos e **demais estudos de precisão**. Even though this term "scale" (large or small) is generally applied to maps/charts, I believe it's also used in schematic diagrams and the like, which is what this seems to be the context here - drawing diagrams. Hope this helps. |
