scale - The relation between the size of an object on a map and its size in the real world. "Large-scale" and "small-scale" are relative terms, denoting the relationship of mapped objects to their actual size. Objects mapped at large-scale are closer to their actual sizes, while objects mapped at small-scale are less close to their actual sizes. See also resolution.
