Since it was possible to show all but the minutest detail on these maps, the 1:10,000- scale trench map was commonly regarded as an infantry map, although it was also used to some extent by field artillery. Information on the trenches was overprinted in red and dark blue onto a grey base map which featured topographic detail. In many cases, the latter also used light blue to outline lakes, rivers, and canals, and brown to outline contours. Information on the German Army's military organization usually included the following: used and unused trenches; trenches organized for fire, communication, and support; wire entanglements; supply dumps; earthworks; mine craters; trench railways; and buried cable or pipe. Towards the latter half of the war the overprints also began showing works reinforced by concrete; listening posts; machine gun, A-A gun, and trench mortar emplacements; ammunition dumps; and dug-outs (index map for this series).

The original World War I map collection was constituted from various sources at a time when adequate records on provenance were not preserved by the then Public Archives. The present organization in sub-series was devised to accommodate maps found in other fonds and collections, therefore, the list below will include maps that may not be ordered from the present record. Researchers should consult any alternate MIKAN record number that appears below. Maps marked by the letters WWI do belong to the original collection and may be ordered here. Please note though that almost all the maps are available on microfiche and may be consulted on the premises directly from self-serve cabinets.
