WIG (1919-1949)
Comparison of fragments of maps WIG in scale 1:25000 Rejon Wilno (ark.1 XII-18-H), P29-S40-H (various years of publication) and one werst map (1:42000) LXVIII-5.
Wojskowy Instytut Geograficzny (WIG) - Military Geographical Institute, military institution in Poland in 1919-1949 which organized creating and publishing maps (in wide sense). More details about WIG in book Bogusław Krassowski "Polska kartografia wojskowa w latach 1918-1945" (Polish lang.).
WIG mainly produced the following types of maps: 1:25000 (Mapa szczegołowa - a detailed map), 1:100000 (Mapa taktyczna - tactical map), 1:300000 (Mapa operacyjna-operational map).
Since 1923 till 1928, when were a unify new topographical signs in Polish maps introduced, were produced color maps in scale 1:25000 on following areas: Near-shore zone (33), Wisła (7), Grudziądz (9), Bydgoszcz (14) , Toruń (4), Zagłębie Polskie (21), Wilno (9), Osowieć (9), Oboz Leśna (4), Modlin (3), Brest (12), Dęblin (4), Łuck (11), Dubno - Krzemieniec (15), Pohulanka (1).
On territories of present Lithuania 2 sets were published: rejon Wilno (9 maps), rejon Pohulanka (1 map).
Rejon Pohulanka
Index sheet of early WIG 1:25000 maps on present Lithuania (rejon Wilno, Pohulanka)

Pohulanka - place for exercises of Polish army (+- range) near Pabradė. Now Phulanka name non-exist, Pažeimenė village there. Original in Polish name of place of exercises was OC Pohulanka, about in 1936 renamed to Zułowski OC im. Marszałka Józefa Piłsudskiego. In 1923-1926 at Pohulanka place for exercises precise triangulation was made. It is possible that triangulation towers (mostly wooden) were used, it is interesting that narrow railway from station Pohulanka to triangulation point is on the map P28 S42 shown.
Depending on what maps have been the basis WIG 1:25000, frame WIG 1:25000 maps was 6' latitude and 10' longitude considered from Ferro (maps based on German maps), or 5' of latitude and 9' longitude considered from Pulkovo (maps based on maps of Russian Empire).
Maps WIG 1:250000 published since 1928 mostly had frame size 5' latitude and 10' longitude considered from Greenwich.
One sheet WIG 1:100000 map stows 9 maps WIG 1:25000. Hence, the names of the maps WIG 1:25000 were composed from name of WIG 1:100000 maps by adding Latin letter (A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I), indicating the position of the WIG 1:100000 leaf, as well as the name of the largest item on the place-name. Maps were issued one-, two-or four colors.
Maps WIG 1:25000 during World War II were used by German army, producing maps of scale 1:25000 on territory of Poland, Lithuania and Belarus.
According literature (see below) WIG prepared and published over 1700 maps in scale 1:25000. About 150-165 maps at this scale cover territories of present Lithuania - mostly around Vilnius. About 70 WIG 1:25000 maps on territories of present Lithuania were prepared and published using original (WIG) survey from 193* or revised old maps (mostly survey from 1880-1890 of Russian empire), about 90+ WIG 1:25000 maps were prepared and published using survey from 1880-1890 (survey of Russian empire) - mostly no changes can be observed on these maps. Index sheet of WIG 1:25000 maps on territories of Lithuania shows, that WIG 1:25000 maps were prepared and published on territories around Vilnius (one and two color WIG 1:25000 maps) and on territories of south and north of Lithuania (WIG 1:25000 maps based on old/Russian survey). On territories of present Lithuania WIG survey covered only area near Vilnius and present Lithuania-Belarus border. If WIG 1:25000 map covered territories of independent Lithuania, content to WIG 1:25000 maps was taken from old Russian survey (on territories of independent Lithuania).
We have to remind that Vilnius area in 1919-1939 was under Poland authority.

WIG 1:25000 maps, index sheet over Lithuania

Index sheet of WIG 1:25000 maps on territories of present Lithuania
On index sheet aren't 9 WIG 1:25000 maps on Vilnius and surroundings. These maps were based on Russian survey, had name like Russian half-verst maps.

On index sheet (see abowe) in green colour marked WIG 1:25000 maps prepared as copies of re-scaled Russian (1:42000, 1:21000) maps. Probably German maps in scale 1:25000 "Russischen karte des Westlichen Grenzgebiets" were used.
In grey colour marked WIG 1:25000 maps were prepared using revised old survey or original WIG survey.
Full list of WIG 1:25000 maps on present territory of Lithuania you can find THERE (link, PDF). List was prepared analysing registers of libraries, archives (specially thanks M.Z. mapywig.org). Believable list expands.

We sugest to analize maps from the same territory and period (1917-1937) bud different publishers. It is interesting how picture territories from "another" border...

Example of Polish WIG maps in scale 1:100000- sheet A30 B40 Wilno (1933).
Until 1922-23 WIG mainly reproduced maps of other countries, mostly transforming them into the maps in scale 1:100000. WIG used the Austro-Hungarian maps in scale 1:75000, Czechoslovak maps in scale 1:75000, maps of Russian Empire in scale 1:84000, 1:126000, German maps scale 1:100000 (Maps of Germany, Maps of western Russia). Content generally did not change.
N24 Simno
Fragment of map N24 Simno (published by WIG in 1922, 1:100000)

From 1922-23 to 1927, were produced organic WIG maps in scale 1:100000 (Mapa taktyczna - tactical map) (called first-type). Basically WIG 1:100000 maps of this edition were based on old maps, were used recognizing. Size of frames of WIG maps in scale 1:100000 (this and next generations of WIG 1:100000 maps) was 15' latitude and 30' longitude considered from Ferro (or 32,0 x27, 8 cm on the 55 parallel). Name of the map indicate the number of row (in front of him in the first type the letter A, in next types- Pas-row) and the number of column (in front of him in the first type the letter B, in next types- Slup-column). Maps produced in color. Until 1927 maps WIG 1:100000 (first type) covered about 40 percents of Poland.
A30 B40 Wilno
Fragment of map A30 B40 Wilno (WIG, 1:100000, recognized in 1923-1925, published in 1927)

Since 1927 maps WIG 1:100000 issued by the original mapping, also were used recognizing of old maps. Maps WIG in scale 1:100000 of this generation were called second type and were available in two colors (sometimes four). Longitude was considered from Greenwich.
P31 S36 Wizajny Kalwaria
Fragment of map P31 S36 Wizajny-Kalwaria fragmentas (WIG, 1:100000, recognized in 1924, published in 1929. Territory of Lithuania published as in ald maps (not recognized), railway collected from map in scale 1:750000, but position of them is wrong.)

From 1929 to 1931 were produced so-called third type maps WIG in scale 1:100000.
P32 S36 Suwalki
Fragment of map P32 S36 Suwalki (WIG 1:100000, 1929)

Since 1931 were produced the fourth, called the normal, types of maps WIG in scale 1:100000. There were 482 WIG maps in scale 1:100000 issued which covered territories of Poland, part of Lithuania, Latvia, Belarus, Ukraine, Czechoslovakia.
P41 S29 Lodz
Fragment of map P41 S29 Lodz (WIG 1:100000, 1937)

Also maps combined of 2 or 4 maps in scale 1:100000 were prepared and published (mostly on main regions/objects: The capital Warszawa, mountain Tatry). name of combined maps was as separat maps: name of sheet indicate positions in row and column (Pas xx-xx Slup yy-yy) and name of main object on map. Example: Pas 39-40 Slup 32 Warszawa (arkusz zbiorowy).

An example - combined (of 2) sheet - map Pas 51-52 Slup 29-30 Tatry (arkusz zbiorowy).

It is interesting that after II WW General staff of (socialistic) Polish army (after closing working of WIG) published maps in scale 1:100000 according WIG numeration. These published maps were based on WIG maps in scale 1:100000 but updated acc. information from RKKA (probable other sources were used too)  maps in scale 1:100000 (which were published till II WW). Below you can see fragment of map  P31 S36 Wizajny (GS of Polish army, 1951) and compare with WIG map (see above).

Maps from collection of WIG 1:300000 have size 2 deg. longitude and 1 deg. latitude. Longitude was considered from Greenwich.

Maps from collection WIG 1:300000 have own topographical signs and symbols. Relief was shown by horizontals every 10 m. (sometimes 5 or 2.5 m.).

Maps from WIG 1:300000 set were published in six (later seven) colors.

WIG maps in scale 1:10000 (Wilno and surroundings)

WIG (Wojskowy Instytut Geograficzny - Military Institute of Geography) published only few maps in scale 1:10000. One set (package) of WIG 1:10000 maps was published on territories of city Vilnius (Wilno) and surroundings (See index sheet). Maps in scale 1:10000 were published in one color and were as product of reproduction of field originals (scale 1:20000 or 1:25000). Maps in scale 1:10000 were published in small edition, marked "Secret", "Temporary edition".

Polish WIG maps in scale 1:750000

Survey map of Poland and adjacent territories in scale 1:750000 WIG (Military Geographical Institute) produced up to 1927 (one additional map Lwow released in 1934). Maps of an older content, uncomfortable map scale 1:750000 after 1927 y. were replaced by WIG maps in scale 1:1000000 (international map). WIG has prepared and published two editions of the maps in scale 1:750000.

The first edition was prepared using the Austrian maps Ubersichtskarte von Mitteleuropa in the same scale 1:750000 (published in 1880-1886), maps were updated by WIG in Warsaw and printed in Vienna in the Austrian Military Geographical Institute. Updated could only place names and (perhaps) the network of communications. 15-sheet map was published in 1924 in four colors and additional green color represents the border of Poland. Projection of maps - Bona, relief displayed by drawing. Size of maps about 3 deg. latitude 4 deg. longitude. Longitude was considered from Ferro.

The second edition of WIG maps in scale 1:750000 has contributed more proofs: corrected names of settlements, significantly upgraded network of roads and railways (shown and projected railways). The set of WIG 1:7500000 (second edition) consists of 10 maps, maps were published in 1924-1927, 1934. Size of maps about 3 deg. latitude 4 deg.longitude. Longitude was considered by Ferro.

Early WIG maps (reprints in original scale)
As we know at the begining of lifetime WIG (Polish Wojskowy Instytut Geograficzny (WIG) - Military Geographical Institute) reprinted Austrian, Russian, German maps. It is interesting, that mostly reprints were in scale 1:25000 (when originals were in 0,5-verst [1:21000], 1-verst [1:42000] scale) or 1:100000 (when originals were in 2-verst [1:84000], 1:75000, 3-verst [1:126000] scale). And wery semioccasionally maps were reprinted in original (not tipical for WIG) verst-scale. As example - WIG reprinted 3-verst (1:126000) maps without changes in content in early 1920-th. Names of these 3-verst (1:126000) maps were in Polish: Rząd (Row) xx Arkusz (list) yy with name of biggest population place in map.
